Long hours of erection causes prostate cancer?

I know this might sound stupid but I just wanted to know does erection has anything to do with prostate cancer? how about long hours of erection?
Thanks

An erection is usually a sign of a high libido. It has been proven that frequent ejaculations can reduce the risk of prostate cancer. http://newsfromrussia.com/science/2004/04/07/53281.html

Long hours of erection may signal that one has a high libido. The erection may not cause the prostate cancer, but it may be a sign that something chemically is building up that may need to be released.

I hope this helps.

Peace.
