Taken from http://brisbanewoman.com/uncategorized/girlie-updates/ - "The pharmaceutical industry's push to find a female version of Viagra has been full of letdowns.
Despite a decade of testing pills, patches, gels, nasal sprays and vaginal rings, there is still no approved drug for "female sexual dysfunction".
More than a dozen drugs that reached late-stage testing have been abandoned, shelved or recycled for unrelated problems.
Market analysts still see a multibillion-dollar opportunity in female sexual complaints. And two drugs, LibiGel and Flibanserin, doggedly aspire to become the first to win the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) imprimatur.
But female sex disorders have turned out to be far more difficult to define and quantify, let alone fix, than erectile dysfunction."
this was my comment -
Hi Kylie … interesting topic. Female Viagra may work for some women with specific needs. But popping a pill is not a ‘wonder solution’ for women.
From my experience in women’s sexuality (or lack of it) there are quite a few issues to address across many different areas.
1. Good Sex begins in the Brain and if you are holding in Anger- it will be ‘difficult to get in the mood’ - many Women are holding in a lot of repressed anger, please ladies see a pschologist who specializes in womens issues, get to the bottom of your anger and resentment - communicate your feelings, try meditation , yoga, relaxation …. stop internalizing anger and hurts. You long term sexual satisfaction depends on it.
2. Lubrication - many things can affect vaginal lubrication - hormones,medications,lack of stimulation(women in general need at least 20- 30 minutes of forplay to achieve orgasm - the average male needs only 3-5 minutes !)or stress etc. It is not a failure on the woman’s part to need extra lubrication. see your Family Doctor for advice and invest in a good quality natural lubricant (SYLK - can be bought from most chemists and supermarkets)
3.Attitude - if you want to feel sexy… you have to think sexy - it’s about embracing ourselves as the wonderful, amazing women that we are. Who cares if we don’t have a perfect size 10 body, have wrinkles cellulite and a little extra padding. Ladies EMBRACE YOUR CURVES - look at Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez - with curves that would be shunned by any modelling agency - they make no apology for their sexy, full, womanly figures. When you have a sparkle in your eyes and know who you are and where you are headed … you realize you are the only one holding the key to your own sexual pleasure and enjoyment.
4. Too tired for Sex … of course you are tired … we’re all tired ! Life is hectic … kids, career, family, chores. We need to slow down and take time out for each other. Live slowly. Even if you feel tired … as Nike say - ‘just do it’- it is amazing how quickly you can ‘get in the mood’!
5. Do you know… that the more we think about sex … the more we want it - read erotica ( try Mills and Boon - Blaze - very sexy, or for the really adventurous souls - visit my website to read Mistress Vixens Fantasies !)
6. Forplay - every man should be taught at age 18 that Forplay should last 24/7. And it is not just love notes and a little ‘rub here and there’ - it is doing the dishes, maybe running you a bath while he puts the kids to bed ( and with no other motive on his part!)
7. Get to know your own body - learn how your body responds to touch - discover what you like and dislike - if you don’t know what ‘turns you on’ - how are you going to tell your partner ?
8. Embrace Sensuality. look after your body - cherish the temple in which you live, when you rub body lotion onto your skin - do you just slather it in … or do you gently massage it into your skin, what does it feel like on your skin - is it hot /cold ? What does it smell like ? How does your skin feel as you glide it over your curves ?
Spoil yourself with sexy lingerie. Take notice of how your body moves, have confidence in yourself.
Climb back into your body … instead of dragging it around.
9. SEX - try a new rule …. make sure you come before he heads down his pathway to pleasure !
10. Get in touch with your body first, and speak up … it’s time to start feeling good.
This is a small part of what I teach in my Goddess Guide to Essential Learning and Good Girls Guide to Naughty Sex Workshops.
So Ladies … have confidence in yourself, learn what makes you feel good, and learn to show your partner what you enjoy and BELIEVE YOU ARE TRUELY DESIRABLE.
Who needs female viagra !
