MEN! Do not fall for this internet hoax!

There is No, repeat No scientific evidence that oogling women's breasts promotes male longevity

From Cliff Thies:

MyFoxBoston is the latest to fall for the internet hoax that a study of 500 men in Germany provides scientific proof that starring at women's breats promotes longevilty (as in life expectancy). Judy Walker and Quynh Le of the University of Tasmania, at the 6th Annual Rural Health Conference in Canberra, stated conclusively that there was no such study, that the report was never published in the New England
Journal of Medicine, and that Karen Weatherby, the purported author of the report, does even not exist. They then went on and on about something called "Critical Discourse Analysis." I suppose this reflects that, in their theory of male longevity, boring them is more effective than exciting them.

From Fox5:

Five-hundred men participated in the German study. Half were told to refrain from looking at breasts for five years, the other half were told to ogle them daily.

The study found the men who stared at breasts more often showed lower rates of heart problems, a lower resting heart rate and lower blood pressure.

The authors of the study recommend that men stare at breasts for 10 minutes a day.

Editor's note - Apologies, of course, to the more socially conservative readers of LR.
