A few weeks ago I went to Leeds to see this chap who quite tenderly caressed my testicles and probed my bottom.
Okay, now that I have your attention I will clarify that it was part of a health assessment and the chap was most qualified to do so given the certificate on the wall. He also had a white coat and a stethoscope, so that pretty much qualifies him to do what the dickens he fancies to my tender parts.
I would say that the certificate didn’t specifically mention those activities, that would just be weird, but it all looked particularly official so I just assumed it covered it.
My point is, and it is a serious one, that many men neglect these things and end up dead.
There are some pretty harrowing figures out there on the matter of men’s health. Did you know that 1 in 8 men in the UK will get prostate cancer in their lives? It is the most common cancer in men in the UK, and yet so many of us do nothing about it in terms of prevention.
What’s the point you ask? My point is don’t neglect your health gents. You might actually find that you enjoy it, you never know.
