The Wages of Promiscuous Sex Is Death: Once more, the wisdom of the ancient world has been proven true
American Thinker ^ | 02/21/2020 | Jeffrey Folks

Once more, the wisdom of the ancient world has been proven true.

new report by British researchers shows strong association between the number of one's lifetime sexual partners and one's risk of developing cancer and other serious diseases.  According to a new report published in BMJ Sexual & Reproductive Health, women with 10 or more lifetime sexual partners were 91% more likely to develop cancer compared to those with zero to one partner, while men with that number of partners were 64% more likely to contract cancer.

The researchers based their work on the English Longitudinal Study of Aging, a detailed study of 5,722 men and women.  Along with higher cancer rates, they found that women with high number (10 or more) of sexual partners were far more likely to suffer from a long-term debilitating illnesses.

The researchers and others in the field were quick to qualify their findings: doctors have known for a long time that certain STIs (sexually transmitted infections) can lead to particular forms of cancer.  In addition, the study showed that those who have a higher number of lifetime sexual partners are also more likely to smoke and drink alcohol, so the higher number of partners may not be the actual cause of disease.

Nonetheless, the association of promiscuity and disease is overwhelming, and a greater number of sexual partners may be the direct cause of disease.  Scientists just don't know.  In the meantime, the study's co-author, Lee Smith, suggested that using condoms might "minimize the risk."  But there is a better way: live a chaste and sensible life.

The question of chastity falls into what Plato would have called the Form of the Good or what, in less stilted terms, we might simply call "morality."  The difference between right and wrong is not difficult to ascertain, nor was it ever meant to be.

Men should know if they perform oral sex on a woman with HPV they are likely to end up with a squamous cell oral cancer years later.

Michael Douglas has admitted this.

Im not sure about the shot for teenage boys but it would make sense. The frightening thing is how HPV morphs into an aggressive form of cancer decades after the initial exposure. Mike Douglas is an example.

So do I, unfortunately. I had 9-hour surgery called neck dissection and lost half of my tongue in the process, All for venture south 20 or 30 years ago. The not so funny thing is that I was not a big chowhound with many women. But obviously one of them was the wrong one. Oy!

They think people in the ancient world were chaste and monogamous?

If you never have sex then you’ll liver forever. But what would be the point?

Not true. The healthiest people are the ones who have as much sex as possible...but ALL of it with the spouse he/she is married to. There are many ways that the better health can manifest itself but here is one that is important for the woman... semen contains an enzyme called Argininosuccinate Chrysotrophin and it's known cancer fighter. South Korean researchers figured this out years ago when they were trying to figure out why faithful married women had less incidents of cancer than women who had never had sex.

Strangely enough, life-long celibates also end up dead.

You might have been a ‘teeny bit sarcastic’....but on the other hand, there are those who actually believe that none is better than any from a health perspective. I should have known though that Freepers are much too smart to believe THAT!
