Female Viagra
I don’t like the idea of wonder drugs. Literally and metaphorically there is no such thing as a magic bullet, and yet this article on the BBC’s website might sound like the answer to many couple’s prayers.
The problem is of course, as the article points out, even if the new tablet works there may be other reasons for a couple not feeling like sex. Leaving aside physiological issues there are many good reasons to investigate why a couple stops having sex before resorting to medication. Problems within a relationship and pressures from outside can make sex the last thing on your mind.
Just jumping into bed to cover up the problems a couple have can just make the problems worse. You might just get better at ignoring the real problem.
That’s not to say of course that this drug is a bad thing. Assuming it is passed for use it could benefit many couples who need a little kick start to invigorate their relationship after career and kids have displaced twice-nightly bedroom gymnastics.

Kids can kill passion by their very presence. My oldest sleeps a mere 10cm away from me and that can be very inhibiting.
Once the kids leave those teenage years and you find yourself back where you started, what is needed is a kick start, sometimes women more so than men, sometimes it is the other way around you need to rediscover each other, if a pill can help then what is the badness that you see in it.
Like all drugs they are a tool to achieve a goal. If the goal is honourable then the path must be too.
