UK: NHS recommends pupils have an 'orgasm a day' to reduce risk of heart attack and stroke

The NHS is telling pupils they have a 'right' to an enjoyable sex life in a leaflet being sent to schools.

It encourages them to consider an 'orgasm a day' as a way reduce the risk of heart attacks and stroke.

And if they can't get sex, the leaflet says children should consider masturbation.
 

The advice appears in guidance circulated to parents, teachers and youth workers. It says experts have for too long concentrated on the need for 'safe sex' and loving relationships - while ignoring the main reason people have sex, for enjoyment.

But family groups condemned the guidance last night, saying it would encourage children to have underage sex and could lead to rising rates of sexually-transmitted diseases.

Around 40,000 teenage girls fall pregnant every year in the UK - the highest level in western Europe. More than half end up in abortion.

The leaflet has come to light just a week after it emerged that a £6million initiative to reduce teenage pregnancies more than doubled the number of girls conceiving.

The Government-backed scheme tried to persuade teenage girls not to get pregnant by handing out condoms and teaching them about sex. But a study in the British Medical Journal found girls on the scheme were 'significantly' more likely to fall pregnant than other girls.

Now criticism is focused on the new leaflet, entitled Pleasure, which has been drawn up by Sheffield primary care trust.

The Sex Positive Agenda is playing its hand again to show why it opposes abstinence.

They don’t oppose it “because it doesn’t work”. They oppose it because they see sexual pleasure to be a birthright that should be enjoyed by everyone at every age at every opportunity with no moral judgements over any activity.

It may prevent juvenile heart attacks but it increases blindness...
