The National Health Service in Britain clearly has all of its ducks in a row and is looking to finally bring some truth and sexiness back into the world of taking care of yourself. They have recently sparked some controversy with their new educational campaign which promotes the importance of having an enjoyable sex life and regular orgasms. They even go so far as to promote the slogan "an orgasm a day keeps the doctor away", further saying, "Health promotion experts advocate five portions of fruit and veg a day and 30 minutes' physical activity three times a week. What about sex or masturbation twice a week?" Naturally there are all sorts of people who are now up in arms about this campaign saying that it is going to promote teenage sex and lead to an increase in STDs. First, YAY!!! Thank God someone is realizing that sex is a good thing, orgasms are great for you, and sexual activity is actually quite good for both your cardiovascular, mental, and muscle health. Second, seriously what the hell is wrong with people that they are not willing to understand that teenagers are going to have sex whether we tell them about it or not, and maybe, just maybe, it is actually better for them to have a positive outlook about sex and its connections to health, then repressing all notions of sex and making it a taboo subject. I mean how much research does there need to be showing that countries that have an open attitude towards sex actually have the lowest STD rates and the least amount of teenage pregnancies? I can see nothing but good things coming from this campaign, and if they promote safe sex along side it, all the better!
Thanks AG for pointing this campaign out to me!

Maybe the people who are all up in arms should stick to nipple orgasms.
Damn Skippy.
