#3 The scientists also took samples from 200 healthy people for comparison

Huh? This is what passes for science? or a high school science fair project?

#7 This will be de-bunked after next week's study. Then verified, then de-bunked. They gotta keep the cash flow coming in.

#8 They may have a point, but it's not the whole picture. To start with, people have a unique and complex bacterial culture on and in them, as individual as fingerprints.

On the skin, it is not evenly distributed, with the area from about the knees to the navel having a much greater concentration of coliform, or fecal bacteria. While only a percentage of this bacteria is harmful, its density makes it much easier to spread. This is why people are told to wash their hands after using the restroom.

It also complicates sex. Females are already vulnerable to coliform "yeast" infections, due to the proximity of the mons pubis (vaginal opening) to the anus. But when they have sex with a male for the first time, they suddenly get perhaps 25 to 100 new types and strains of bacteria introduced, which is a shock to their immune system.

I said all that to explain why some amount of oral sex, especially at the onset of a relationship, is a good idea. It has been proposed that the introduction of a male's bacterial culture orally, with some days, or a week delay before vaginal penetration, would give the female's immune system time to adjust to the new culture.

This would not just lower the incidence of yeast infection, but would also make pregnancy easier, the body not having to fight a series of bacterial infections at the same time. The immune system is more capable orally, because the mouth is very septic.

Ironically, while this presents a biological reason for oral sex, it also supports a biological reason for monogamy. This is because after a couple have sex, both partners have increased their bacterial cultures significantly with the introduction of new bacteria and new strains.

However, if a person engages multiple sex partners over a period of time, they develop what has been called a "superculture" of bacteria. When a person with such a superculture has sex with a virgin, the virgin may get so many foreign bacteria at once that they would almost certainly get ill, or at least have their immune system strained and weakened.

Finally, the oral sex-throat cancer link is not too outrageous an idea, because several pathogens have been associated with cancers and other problems, often years after infection. In the article it notes that number of sex partners is also a factor, here.

#12 "People who indulge in oral sex face the risk ...."

Sorry, but that's just plain funny.

Dr Mooses, ima writing that one down... suggestion: on delivery, a low sincere voice would add sum convincing richness...

#15 Here's another good excuse:

http://tinyurl.com/3djdue

"New research suggests oral sex may not only help a woman conceive but may make her pregnancy safer and more successful.

The Australian study found that semen contains a growth factor which helps persuade a mother's immune system to accept sperm.

It claims to have found evidence that regular exposure before pregnancy, especially by mouth, helps her immune system get used to her partner's sperm..."

#16 Everyone should check out what oral sex with someone who is infected with HPV will do to you... HPV is one of the most commen sexually transmitted diseases.

Just saying...

#17 I'm sure you won't mind if I don't, Blackvenom dear. Sometimes there's just too much information here.

Related to your first post, Anonymoose, would your thesis explain the high number of girls who get terribly sick on their honeymoons?

#19 This needs to be verified. I'm going to have to perform my own scientific study with an extraordinarily large sample size.

#22 from Dr. Mooses Link:

He says, "the protective effect was strongest if the woman swallowed the semen".

Now, when advising couples who have difficulty carrying pregnancies to full term, he says: "I tell them, 'semen exposure's good, and you could think of oral sex".

O-M-Gawd with this document I will make every woman I like, healthy and happy!

#24 Tonsil and throat cancers affect about two in every 100,000 adults in the US.

I personally believe cancer is caused by cells which are deprived of oxygen. If your girl is gonna suck, make sure she catches her breath.

#25 PS- well not just Oxygen deprevation and anything that can change your DNA like ultraviolet rays and strong electromatic fields
