Looks like some lab assistant's boyfriend caught her in a compromising position with her professor. So the professor had to think on his feet, so to speak.

.....printing out now to take home and show my wife!

[Gees]

But don't try to tell her that was actually on CNN.com.

That'd be cheating. Be more creative than that.

I wonder what the motivation for the experiment was

I'm surprised at you! Weren't you the first to track down bogus info recently? I was really counting on you! :cD

Or does subject matter make the difference? :c)

[i_am_dave]

Just what kind of science are they using. They are surely NOT following the scientific method.

The article says:
In a study of over 15,000 women suspected of having performed regular fellatio and swallowed the ejaculatory fluid

Why did they Suspect? This study is flawed......

[Gees]

It's not really CNN's site. Just a doctored doc on a baseball site.

Wow - guys really have selective vision. :cD

Seriously, please don't use this as some sort of convincing evidence with wives or girlfriends. I get the joke, but I'd hate to think some bizarre sense of false security was being spread by this with a subject as serious as cancer.

I don't mean you, Dave. I mean anyone.

[i_am_dave]

I totally missed the fact that it was a spoof!

I'm not running on all 8 cylinders today. I've had my head buried in the details of OPC for the last couple of weeks. Guess I lost a few brain cells!

Don't worry, I'll behave! I'll let my wife read it and think about it for 30 seconds or so, then I'll let her in on the joke! She'll appreciate it.

[Gees]

:c) Good plan.

And I don't think you were alone. Like I said - if you want to believe something badly enough.............

something about that url just didn't look right...

[i_am_dave]

Don't know if I really wanted to believe it or not.
I was just a little suprised by the content.
I've been married for over 19 years, there are no mysteries left for me

[Gees]

MAKE mystery, Dave. :c) Don't sit back and wait for it.

If you can't have mystery, make magic. :c)

I did not need to research this one to find out it was a crock. That is why I posted what I did. I have "Y" chromosomes too, and I know what lengths guys will go to get women to do this.

now thats funny

Study: Fellatio may significantly decrease the risk of breast cancer in women

(AP) -- Women who perform the act of fellatio and swallow semen on a regular basis, one to two times a week, may reduce their risk of breast cancer by up to 40 percent, a North Carolina State University study found.

Doctors had never suspected a link between the act of fellatio and breast cancer, but new research being performed at North Carolina State University is starting to suggest that there could be an important link between the two.

In a study of over 15,000 women suspected of having performed regular fellatio and swallowed the ejaculatory fluid, over the past ten years, the researchers found that those actually having performed the act regularly, one to two times a week, had a lower occurance of breast cancer than those who had not. There was no increased risk, however, for those who did not regularly perform.

"I think it removes the last shade of doubt that fellatio is actually a healthy act," said Dr. A.J. Kramer of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, who was not involved in the research. "I am surprised by these findings, but am also excited that the researchers may have discovered a relatively easy way to lower the occurance of breast cancer in women."

The University researchers stressed that, though breast cancer is relatively uncommon, any steps taken to reduce the risk would be a wise decision.

"Only with regular occurance will your chances be reduced, so I encourage all women out there to make fellatio an important part of their daily routine," said Dr. Helena Shifteer, one of the researchers at the University. "Since the emergence of the research, I try to fellate at least once every other night to reduce my chances."

The study is reported in Friday's Journal of Medical Research.

In 1991, 43,582 women died of breast cancer, as reported by the National Cancer Institute.

Dr. Len Lictepeen, deputy chief medical officer for the American Cancer Society, said women should not overlook or "play down" these findings.

"This will hopefully change women's practice and patterns, resulting in a severe drop in the future number of cases," Lictepeen said.

Sooner said the research shows no increase in the risk of breast cancer in those who are, for whatever reason, not able to fellate regularly.

"There's definitely fertile ground for more research. Many have stepped forward to volunteer for related research now in the planning stages," he said.

Almost every woman is, at some point, going to perform the act of fellatio, but it is the frequency at which this event occurs that makes the difference, say researchers. Also key seems to be the protein and enzyme count in the semen, but researchers are again waiting for more test data.

The reasearch consisted of two groups, 6,246 women ages 25 to 45 who had performed fellatio and swallowed on a regular basis over the past five to ten years, and 9,728 women who had not or did not swallow. The group of women who had performed and swallowed had a breast cancer rate of 1.9 percent and the group who had not had a breast cancer rate of 10.4 percent.

"The findings do suggest that there are other causes for breast cancer besides the absence of regular fellatio," Shafteer said. "It's a cause, not THE cause."
