Oral sex is associated with reduced incidence of recurrent miscarriage[$]
In a matched case control study, 97 women with at least three unexplained consecutive miscarriages prior to the 20th week of gestation with the same partner were included. Cases were younger than 36 years at time of the third miscarriage. The control group included 137 matched women with an uneventful pregnancy. The association between oral sex and recurrent miscarriage was assessed with conditional logistic regression, odds ratios (ORs) were estimated. Missing data were imputed using Imputation by Chained Equations.
In the matched analysis, 41 out of 72 women with recurrent miscarriage had have oral sex, whereas 70 out of 96 matched controls answered positive to this question (56.9% vs. 72.9%, OR 0.50 95%CI 0.25-0.97, p = 0.04). After imputation of missing exposure data (51.7%), the association became weaker (OR 0.67, 95%CI 0.36-1.24, p = 0.21).
[EDIT: The paper is referring to females giving oral sex to males. --fyngyrz]

Two of your glossary items are involved in cunnilingus, but the absence of the third leads me to infer that they are talking about giving oral sex.

I hate to break it to you Einstein, but cunnilingus *is* oral sex [wikipedia.org]:
That I actually have to quote wikipedia to you on this makes me feel sad for any sexual partners you might eventually have.

Is it just me, or do others reading this thread feel like they've entered a twilight zone where no one actually can comprehend anything others write?
From your post, it's not clear to me that you actually understood GP, nor is it clear to me that GP comprehended your previous post either. What the heck are you two smoking?
