Sex is good for your health

In the time since I have been skim reading The Age online, I have never seen a story stay on the 'most read articles' list for three days. Here is little bit of a story that has been on the list for the last three days. It was also in the Sydney Morning Herald, but only lasted one day there. Conclude from that what you will.

So get busy f***ing, safely of course.

We know sex is good for us. Now scientists say it can also protect against disease, writes Lucy Atkins.

IT DOES not take a degree in medicine to work out that sex is good for you. Anything that is free, feels fabulous and leaves you glowing is plainly a good idea.

But scientists are now beginning to understand that the perceived feel-good effects of sexual intercourse are merely the tip of the iceberg. Sex, they are discovering, can offer protection from depression, colds, heart disease and even cancer.
