I'm trying to do a report of a biology class about prostate cancer. I have been able to find information comparing different races and the stats of prostate cancer among them. I have not been about to find any information about prostate cancer in gays vs straight men. I would think that for gay it is less, because they are stimulating their prostate more, but I'm not really sure. I'm totally in the dark about this one. Question is: do gay men get prostate cancer less than straight men?

sexuality is not a factor. so no, gay men do not get prostate cancer less than straight men.

The prostate is stimulated each time you create seamen whether it is by more direct touch or by normal function. Use has no bearing on any other type of cancer. You don't get skin cancer because you touch or use your skin more than someone else.

No one seems to have a clue. In truth, men of EITHER persuasion who have little or no sex seem to be the ones who are most susceptible to prostate cancer. The prostate is directly involved with the production of testosterone, or male hormone, which not only triggers sexual responses but ALSO is an emotional trigger for ALL men and since the biology is MALE the reactions are usually anger, rage, frustration and the like. Physical activity--working out-- is one way for men to reduce the negative effects of testosterone in the body. Frequent jacking off or person to person sexual activity is not only a stress reducer for men, but it is a NECESSITY in a different way then it is for women. For males the need for sex is much more frequent and the drive is often triggered visually and by scent in a much more aggressive way then it is for women. Without releasing this drive, the sperm in storage becomes susceptible to an aging process which is little un- derstood but which can be most easily identified by TASTE. Try tasting month old sperm. It will make you gag. The factor of not releasing sperm often will someday be identified as producing a carcinogen which has yet to be identified. While some of this information may seem disquieting to you--or even absurd--it is only because you are not advanced enough to grasp it. In a phrase: USE IT OR LOSE IT.
