Men who have sex daily with younger women ‘live longer’

Melbourne, July 6 (ANI): Men who have sex daily, especially with younger women, are more likely to live longer, according to a new study.

The study, conducted by researchers at Germany’s Max Plank Institute, found that a man’s chances of dying early are cut by 20 per cent if their bride is between 15 and 17 years their junior, reports the Daily Telegraph.

The average life expectancy of a man is 77, but the last seven years are marked by serious illness or ailments for the majority of men.

However, experts say that sex rates highest among the simple and often bizarre ways to keep men healthy – including cutting down on pain killers, eating five apples a day, brushing teeth with your wrong hand and carrying wallets in the breast pocket.

The researchers also found that men with younger women – who look after the children and put food on the table – help extend their lives.

The study, which examined deaths between 1990 and 2005 for the entire population of Denmark, concluded that the higher life expectancy was either caused by younger women caring for men better or natural selection. (ANI)

Patients with lower urinary tract symptoms ‘at increased metabolic syndrome risk’

Washington, June 20 (ANI): A new study has revealed that patients with severe to mild lower urinary tract (LUT) symptoms are at a greater risk of developing metabolic syndrome, a collection of cardiovascular risk factors.

“These findings have important diagnostic and management implications,” said the authors.

“Patients who present with components of metabolic dysfunction should be routinely queried with respect to urological function, particularly voiding symptoms such as intermittency, incomplete emptying and nocturia, as well as the degree of associated bother.

“Sexual dysfunction symptoms, particularly erectile dysfunction, are similarly reported by the majority of men with MetS and should be routinely evaluated,” they added.

During the study, the researchers interviewed 2,301 men 30 to 79 years old. They found an increased odds ratio of 1.68 for metabolic syndrome was observed in men with mild to severe LUTS symptoms compared to those with few or no symptoms.

They also found increased odds of the metabolic syndrome even with mild symptoms, primarily for incomplete emptying, intermittency and nocturia.

The study appears in The Journal of Urology. (ANI)

Oz women as keen as men to take part in group sex

Melbourne, May 27 (ANI): A new study has revealed the “kinky” world of Australians.

The shocking study found that ladies are as keen to have group sex as men, and they initiate it almost as often.

The survey was conducted among members of Australia’s second biggest online dating site.

Almost 40 per cent of respondents reported an equal gender split in the group encounter, while a further 30 per cent reported a majority of men taking part and 30 per cent a majority of women.

As per the RedHotPie.com.au survey, which drew 8763 responses from among its 1.5 million member listings, almost as many women as men instigate the idea of group sex – 46 per cent compared with 54 per cent.

The most common reasons given for group sex are excitement, variety and to spice up long-term relationships, reports The Daily Telegraph.

The most common form of group sex is a threesome, the study found.

RedHotPie.com.au relationship expert Geoff Barker said the survey suggested Australian women were more sexually liberated than men.

“I thought you would find it skewed towards guys, but the reality is women are pursuing group sex just as much,” he said.

“Women don’t feel judged or watched by society the way Australian men are feeling. Women’s sexuality is encouraged by the media and the men folk.

Men tend to be a little bit more shy in the sex department,” he added. (ANI)

‘Love handles’ stress can ruin women’s sex lives

London, May 9 (ANI): Love handles may be stopping you from getting frisky between the sheets, a new UK report claims.

According to a survey of over 2,000 men and women, carried out by magazine Cosmopolitan, a majority of British ladies worry about their podgy tummies when they’re getting dirty with their partners.

The participants were asked what part of their body they stress about when getting down to business, reports The Sun.

Sixty-one per cent of ladies said they are bothered by their bellies, while more than one woman in ten is concerned about breasts and bottom, the study found.

Only six percent were worried about the sight of their pins, and didn’t like the look of their legs, the survey also revealed.

What’s more, one woman in three is so worried about wobbly bits they avoid certain positions when getting busy between the sheets.

However, when it comes to men, they’re least bothered about how they look in the buff.

Nine out of ten blokes said they never let their body issues interfere with bonking, although they did prove to be a bit sensitive about their beer guts.

When quizzed about what body part they most disliked, a majority of men said their bellies. (ANI)
