Now Don't Make me Regret Posting This...
But while we're talking about a certain three letter word, I thought I'd point out the latest in industry news: men who make more love also live longer, healthier, and more maritally faithful lives. This from the country of amore:
Italian medical researchers carried out a series of studies as part of the conference, and found that a healthy sex life means fewer cardiovascular problems for men.
The investigation was carried out by the Italian Society of Sexual Medicine who are holding their annual congress in the city of Modena.
Dr Emmanuele Jannini, coordinator of the research, said: "What was evident from the research was that men who had active sex lives and were faithful to their partners had fewer cardiovascular complaints and lived longer.
"Increased sexual activity produces more testosterone, which leads to less depression and a better cardiovascular performance which means an improved metabolism."
Via Hot Air.

I'm vindicated! To all those ladies who looked at me askance for proselytizing on the many healthful and salutary effects of love, read this and weep.
Meanwhile, I'm moving to Italy: 'The investigation was carried out by the Italian Society of Sexual Medicine who are holding their annual congress in the city of Modena.' Talk about la dolce vita; and a country that has its head screwed on straight!
Which is better, Expedia, Priceline, or Orbitz?

I am still in the doghouse, so I will remain taciturn but intrigued.

"Increased sexual activity produces more testosterone, which leads to less depression and a better cardiovascular performance which means an improved metabolism."
Or maybe having a higher testosterone level leads to more sex, less depression etc.
This may be a classic confusion of causality.

Italians may be having plenty of sex but what have they to show for it? It sure isn't bambinos...

Also, I think going on a run, or basic exercise, could have the exact same effects--less depression, better cardiovascular performance, improved metabolism, lower stress levels, etc.

I think you're right. Otherwise, you've just licensed every male on the planet to use the most pathetic pick up line ever created.
Re: Now Don't Make me Regret Posting This...
The accuracy of this report is irrelevant, but what is imperative is that this be widely disseminated -- into the hands of women everywhere. Thank you, Emily, for your public service.

Thank you, David, for making my morning. I'm glad I made yours!
Re: Now Don't Make me Regret Posting This...
Many husbands have been making this point for years to very dubious wives.
Re: Now Don't Make me Regret Posting This...
Now husbands have their irrefutable proof!

Re: Now Don't Make me Regret Posting This...
Well now we have Italian men conducting research into sex. Talk about a sinecure. Did Berlusconi fund this?
As to three letter words, Wodehouse wrote a poem about killing his editor when the dude changed "now" into "not".
But will note one of Hot Air's funnier remarks, talking about whoever that senator is from CT (Sidney Blumenthal, most likely) and his horrid debate bafflement about job creation. "See, when a Daddy Job and a Mommy Job love each other very much..."

Don't forget the old joke about how in heaven, the Germans are the engineers, the Italians are the lovers, the French are the cooks, and the English are the cops. In hell the Germans are the lovers, the English are the cooks, the French are the cops, and the Italians are the engineers.
Much as I approve of the result, this is a scientific study from a country that, since Da Vinci and Galileo, hasn't produced a lot of great science (Marconi excepted).

The wives of men who have the most sex report the fewest headaches.

That would definitely be true in my house.

There's an obvious double entendre there that I simply Must. Not. Touch.

Assuming those husbands who have the most sex are having it with their wives. Enthymeme, enthymeme, wherefore are thou enthymeme?

Re: Now Don't Make me Regret Posting This...
And many if not all of those husbands continue to have deteriorating cardiovascular indicators. Gentlemen, take it from the cat -- bald faced appeals just do not work. Repeat after me: Do. Not. Work.
