Eat Your Fruits And Vegetables And Have An Orgasm


The National Health Service of Britain is in a little bit of hot water. They have a new campaign out for school children that just cracks me up. It tells all school children that they should have five portions of fruits and vegetables every day. That is five more than I have, but I can see why they would encourage that. I mean I don't exactly lead a healthy lifestyle. They also suggest that you exercise three times a week for 30 minutes. Again, not something I am prepared to do, but I will watch an infomercial of someone exercising. I do find that amusing.

Now, most people would think the 30 minutes of physical activity would be jogging or some yoga. Maybe some kind of sport. I mean the idea for those of you who do enjoy exercise is to get some type of cardiovascular benefit from it so it make sense that the activity is something that makes your heart pump. Well, sports and jogging were not the first suggestions from the government. Nope. Their suggestion? "What about sex or masturbation twice a week? An orgasm a day keeps the doctor away."

When I was growing up I thought the slogan was an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Apparently now all I have to do is watch porn a few times a week and I get the same exact benefit. I wish I had that excuse when I was growing up. It would have avoided those uncomfortable, awkward knocks on the bathroom door. "What are you doing in there for so long?" "I'm exercising."

  1. I think it's brilliant. In the words of the immortal George M., "Sex is natural, sex is fun!" Treating sex as taboo just messes people up.

  7. I think they meant the kind of sex that involves more activity than just a little wrist action Enty.

  8. Wow, can you imagine the billboards and public service messages for that campaign?
    They could borrow a few:

    Milk's: It does a body good.

    Nike's: Just do it.

    M&M's would have to change. "Melts in your mouth & your hand"

    Timex:Take's a licking...

    Life cereal: Hey Mikey likes it

    Coke: The pause that refreshes

    Am. Express: Never leave home without it.

  9. This campaign is aimed at schoolchildren? I'm all for the "sex is natural", etc., bandwagon, but how is that appropriate for kids?

  12. Well, that settles it--I'm gonna live to be 100!

    I get 30 mins of exercise more than three times a week AND eat my veggies AND have a few big O's each week.

    I knew Mr. Blue would be a life saver!

    inquiring minds want to know!

    mooshki, you're so right. this would never fly in the states, we're so damn uptight. kill 'em but don't fuck 'em (who said that? george carlin?).

  19. @bionicbunny!--IIRC, Jack Nicholson once complained about the MPAA ratings system or whatever as: "if you kiss a tit in a movie, the rating is X, but if you chop it off, the rating is R."

    Pretty f*cked up sexual repression we got here in the good ol' USA.
