Stare at Boobs for Longer Life: Study

Stare at Boobs for Longer Life: Study

Frankfurt, Germany, December 6 -- A rather bizarre study carried out by German researchers suggests that staring at women's breasts is good for men's health and increases their life expectancy. According to Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist and author of the study, gawking at women’s breasts is a healthy practice, almost at par with an intense exercise regime, that prolongs the lifespan of a man by five years. She added, "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female, is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out."

A five-year research on 500 men

Researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany did an in-depth analysis of 200 healthy males over a period of five years. Half the volunteers were instructed to ogle at the breasts of women daily, while the rest were told to refrain from doing so. At the close of the study, the researchers noted that the men who stared at the breasts of females on a regular basis exhibited lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and lesser episodes of coronary artery disease.

Sexual desire linked to better blood circulation

The researchers declared that sexual desire gives rise to better blood circulation that signifies an overall improved health. Weatherby explained the concept stating, "Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There's no question: Gazing at breasts makes men healthy. "Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four to five years."

Although I do feel for the "refrain from ogling" group.

"OK, guys, try not to stare when young Ms Goodbody walks by with a low cut top..."

6. Suppose the refraining is just causing extra stress.
Rather than looking conferring a benefit, how do we know it is not simply that avoiding looking is not causing distress? Men are just wired to check it out and it takes some conscious thought not to look.

18. Exactly!
Sitting there imagining a frying pan over your head for extended periods of time has got to be a major stressor.

10. ....so us older men with previous heart problems should just
stare away....for medical reasons.

All I need now is a doc's scrip to smoke pot, and I will live forever. Happily.

40. I'm a straight woman who appreciates boobies.
Even though my DDs have shrunk to Ds, perhaps I could just stare at my own boobs in a mirror. Of course, that would be self-medicating, which I believe is discouraged.

I thought I had read similar a few years back, but this could be the quantification of the research?

27. Does size of the boobs equate with longevity?
We see here a nice slender lady and a nice busty lady.

Now would I live 1 day longer looking at slender lady and 2 days longer looking at busty lady?

We definitely need more research in this area.
