Big dolls Susannah Breslin, Salon blogs own reverse cowgirl, has published a brilliant short story called Mannequins at Nerve.com.

Masturbate against cancer! An Australian study has concluded that men who masturbate to ejaculation five or more times a week in their 20s and 30s have a third less risk of getting prostate cancer later. "What we found was men who ejaculated most in their twenties, thirties and forties had about a third less prostate cancer risk than men in the lowest category of ejaculation," said Professor Graham Giles, head of cancer epidemiology at the Cancer Council Victoria. "The men who were the high performers in terms of ejaculating had a third less prostate cancer risk than men who were in the lowest category of ejaculation." He said one explanation for the apparent beneficial effects of self-pleasuring was that frequent ejaculation prevented semen from building up in the ducts, where it could potentially become carcinogenic.
