===<span style="font-family:'Linux Libertine, Georgia, Times, serif'; font-size: 24px; line-height: 1.2; font-weight: normal;">Penile–vaginal intercourse is associated with health, but masturbation is not</span>=== | |||
Brody (2010) conducted a survey study analyzing the potential physical and mental health benefits of different sexual activities. | |||
Various indices of psychological and physical function were positively correlated with penile-vaginal intercourse, sometimes even showing a causal relationship. | |||
Masturbation and anal intercourse had inverse associations with health indices, also condom use appears to impair some benefits of penile–vaginal intercourse. | |||
The result may indicate that penile stimulation alone is not enough to bring about the benefits of sex, casting doubt on the notion that men's unhappiness with sexlessness could be alleviated by masturbation alone. | |||

* ''Other sexual behaviors are unassociated, or in some cases (such as masturbation and anal intercourse) inversely associated with better psychological and physical functioning.'' | |||
