The Faculty Lounge: An Orgasm A Day Keeps The Doctor Away. Is This Really NHS?

The Faculty Lounge: An Orgasm A Day Keeps The Doctor Away. Is This Really NHS?: "Sometimes the real news seems so good that you wonder whether The Onion is mere surplussage. Such is the state of affairs today, as leading British papers the Times of London , the Daily Mail, and the Telegraph notify us of a new leaflet, Pleasure, created and...disseminated (?!?)... to parents, teachers, and youth workers by the a branch of the NHS out of Sheffield, England.
From the Times story headlined 'NHS tells school children of their 'right' to 'an orgasm a day'':
Alongside the slogan “an orgasm a day keeps the doctor away”, it says: “Health promotion experts advocate five portions of fruit and veg a day and 30 minutes’ physical activity three times a week. What about sex or masturbation twice a week?”"
