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]

Read TNSFA (The Not So Fine Abstract). That's not what they're talking about. It's in the first paragraph.

Oh, I see... roles reversed. Women giving, not receiving.

Jesus hates oral sodomy as much as the putting in the dirty place.

Is there a paper that says the same about threesomes? My wife has this hot friend that I'd like to get it on with. Oh, and we need another paper on A2M. And one on beer afterwards.
Also, was this amazingly useful paper published in late March, just in time for the start of April?
