Dear Members (no pun intended), Help me on this one. These 3 drugs - or the companies - promote a drug to achieve erection. They are making a lot of money off of this product. So that tells me a couple of things. 1. There are a lot of men who can't get it up. or 2. There aren't a lot of men who can't get it up and these pills cost little to make and they charge a high price. I see the name(s) of these drugs on race cars, golf tournaments and various other high profile, high cost events. So, if the answer is number one, then I wonder....what did men (or women) do before this wonder drug? Or, if the answer is number two, how much does a boner-pill cost?

In Spain in the middle ages men ate a certain beetle. (the name escapes me) While it worked in the short term, the chemicals would cause permanent damage with long term use and men would end up worse off.

What Mad Johnny is referring to is Spanish Fly, rumored to be an aphrodisiac.
The real story is far less romantic:
There is, indeed, a concoction made from an insect, but its use was intended for farm animals - primarily cattle (if I remember correctly). The resulting inflammation was so incredibly uncomfortable to the animals' private parts that they would copulate to try and alleviate the intense irritation.
From what I understand, this same concoction, if administered to humans, could easily be fatal. What is (or was) sold in days gone by as "Genuine Spanish Fly" (for humans) was, most likely, simply a placebo.

Really nice guy, but he would be the last person I'd contact if I was in that condition. Signor V.

In most states Viagra is fully or partially reimbursed by health insurers. Yet most women have to pay for birth control pills out of pocket. The bigger question is why are health insurance companies paying for free or low-cost romps for men but largely deny women contraceptive benefits? Which is probably even more critically needed because of Viagra?

Because Men are in charge of insurance companies and we like to make sure our boys are getting their needs taken care of. The ultimate wingman.

I like awards. Perhaps we should have our own version of the Dundies, if there is not one already.
