In fact sometimes with the pressures they're under it's surprising they ever want it at all! The libido of an adolescent boy? Well there you are, we're all very different and there's simply no sexual "norm".Nicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-52464510459872237562010-10-06T02:16:54.661+01:002010-10-06T02:16:54.661+01:00Blogger ate my comment!

I've had plenty of female patients who just get fed up.<br /><br />However, I'm with Kylie on this one - I seem to have the libido of an adolescent boy and I'm pretty much always interested in sex.secret agent womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03763879283931347382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-34586957501341873852010-10-03T10:23:54.922+01:002010-10-03T10:23:54.922+01:00www - Absolutely, it's about emotion and feeli...www - Absolutely, it's about emotion and feelings - and closeness. Lack of interest might simply be because those things are not right.<br /><br />Kylie - Pretty much always up for it? Well, good for you.

Quite often of course a man stays with his wife but has a vigorous sexual relationship with another woman on the side. But personally I think a man who walks out simply because of that is immature. Then again, if he does walk out it's probably because of other marital problems as well.Nicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-24612878753044924232010-10-03T07:25:23.760+01:002010-10-03T07:25:23.760+01:00i am acquainted with a woman whose husband did, in...i am acquainted with a woman whose husband did, in fact, leave her for somebody who wanted more sex and she has lost a whole lot of security because of that.<br />i still cant decide if he did a reasonable thingkyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964475783207438103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-8939017848721319482010-10-03T07:06:02.535+01:002010-10-03T07:06:02.535+01:00i must be one of the few women who is pretty much ...i must be one of the few women who is pretty much always up for itkyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964475783207438103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-73350511345466325022010-10-03T03:36:22.678+01:002010-10-03T03:36:22.678+01:00I've been following the articles with some int...I've been following the articles with some interest.

The drug that has caused all of this media coverage was trialled as an anti-depressant and many female patients on the trial reported an increase in their sex drive. It is certainly not the same as Viagra because that drug has a physical effect that kicks in soon after a pill is swallowed (increasing blood flow down below).<br />Flibanserin works on the brain and has a psychological manifestation. I read that they project that patients would need a six month treatment period before noticing an effect. <br />Of course pharma companies would love a female Viagra but that drug isn't it. If you think of why Boehringer was encouraged to develop the drug for the purpose (depressed people with low libido started to enjoy a sex life again) I don't think that they 'invented' this problem.Aidanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14634020914060592767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-82399773897204092302010-10-02T16:26:35.805+01:002010-10-02T16:26:35.805+01:00Ramana - Yes, the same applies of course.
