I think the deal is that for men, it's a mechanical issue. You need to empty the hopper to keep it healthy and keep the pipes flowing freely.

For women, there are hormonal benefits and possibly benefits WRT musculature, but I don't think they have a cause/effect issue (enlarged prostate and pee flow issues) with how frequently they have sex like men do.

I think sex for women is supposed to exercise the muscles. You also hear about incontinence being an issue, so maybe more frequent sex keeps the muscles working and keeps the incontinence away. Still, I don't think it's quite the same as the prostate and flow rate issues in men.

And, I think, everyone benefits from the hormonal benefits, oxytocin, feeling good, etc.... I don't think the women have the market cornered on that. And I suspect at least some of that is enhanced if it's a dance w/partner vs a solo rehearsal.
