Its called the little pink pill, a tiny tablet that could have a huge impact on treating female sexual dysfunction. If its approved, it would become the first drug of its kind on the market.
But thats a big IF.
The drug Flibanserin is locked in a heated battle for approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, raising controversial questions about why there are so many sexual enhancement drugs available for men and zero for women.
Cindy Whitehead, the founder and COO of Sprout Pharmaceuticals, a Raleigh, North Carolina-based company focused on producing only Flibanserin, has been fighting for FDA approval for the drug for three years.
There are 25 approved drugs for some form of male sexual dysfunction, but still a great big zero for the most common form of FSD [female sexual dysfunction], Whitehead said. No matter how or why we got here, we're here, and we've got to come up with a solution for it.
Flibanserin is more than curing a weak libido. Its specifically for treating Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder, or HSDD. Gynecologist and sexual health crusader Dr. Lauren Streicher explained that HSDD goes much deeper than just a low sex drive.

Like all Feminist descriptions, this goes "much deeper than just a low sex drive." That's because women are deep, profound, sensitive, nuanced, multi-layered, strong, vulnerable, intelligent, multi-processing, single-minded, adept, grounded, sophisiticated and sublime, and so their pink mill will have to deal with an every-changing manifestation of these integrated expressions of her humanity.
But the guy's blue pill? Ask any woman, and she'll tell you - it's just for his d**k.
“Flibanserin is a poor name choice.”
Uh, that’s just the chemical name. I’ve heard that the brand name will be “Flubber”.
Oh, come on. You have to admit that female sexuality is a little more complicated than male sexuality.
You are thinking Flunitrazepam...
Great suggestions!
Someone had to post it.
Thanks...I am anxiously awaiting the ladies’ comments on this thread.
I have more....;)
One poster alleges that the pill must deal with all these female characteristics:
“That’s because women are deep, profound, sensitive, nuanced, multi-layered, strong, vulnerable, intelligent, multi-processing, single-minded, adept, grounded, sophisiticated and sublime, and so their pink mill will have to deal with an every-changing manifestation of these integrated expressions of her humanity.”
So I guess it will have to override these psychic issues with overwhelming physical manifestations and mindless sexual response?
I remember that the rumor back in the day was that something called “Spanish Fly” was that very substance. Later on, marijuana, cocaine and meth were supposed to do the trick.
Why? Because women refuse to acknowledge male emotions and mock their subtlety as non-existent - all while demanding ever higher levels of "sensitivity" to detect their own subtle levels of emotional response?
Or because women don't want to acknowledge the routine regularity and immediacy of their reflexive sexual reactions in response to a man who has learned what their triggers are?
I think the more appropriate term is "convoluted."
"Complicated" implies an unwarranted measure of objectivity.
Is there anything you dont want to ban?
Man, you have a liberal streak a mile wide.
Hope you don’t like cucumbers. Or bananas. Or dowel rods. Or the spin cycle on washers. Or... yeah this could get complicated.
Your slip is showing.
Will men be able to buy Spanish Fly under their insurance plans too?
