There is so much wrong with that starting with the fact that your prostate could be entertaining.

If the wife/GF/life partner won't put out, wack off as much as you can.

You might need glasses, but your prostate will be in good shape.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

Do some searching it was in the news that the PSA test isn't worth much.

And before that they said mammograms were useless. Backtracked on that pretty quickly. Thing is, tests are not stand alone absolutes.

A very lay theory might suggest that everything going into the body has an automatic way out except for the prostate. You might conclude that the way out needs to be provided one way or another.
