Cyanide?..................
Interesting how they don’t mention the main sex hormone, Testosterone. Sex addiction is BS. It’s just a matter of Testosterone levels and not being able to keep it your pants. That is a conscience decision.
In a related story, Scientists have discovered a food that diminishes a woman’s sex drive by 90%.. It’s called Wedding Cake.
It sounds like they are talking about compulsive behavior. All men have testosterone, but not all men act out in that manner.
I am aware that I am mixing two very different topics (contraception and sexual desire) but it seems to me that society changed very much when the Pill came along and made it easier to avoid consequences of sexual activity. If another medicine came along and removed sexual desire from Men, I think a lot — a lot — of men would take that pill. Better grades in school, better success in the workforce, more money staying in your pocket after you earn it.
As with the women’s Pill, I think it might have a bad effect on society, but I think a lot of people wouldn’t care about that and would take the new pill so that they just didn’t have the distraction of sex. I mean: it’s fun, but it’s not always fun. There is a downside to desire and I think many would be happy to be free of it.
This article seems to about men with a serious sex addiction. But that doesn’t have to be the only market.
everything you think, do, or say, is in the pills you took todaysand
One of its side effects is Lost Sense of Humor.................
Does this cover men with vaginas?
—Asking for a friend.
finasteride works pretty well in that department lol
testosterone increases propensity for aggression, IE pursuit, moreso than the reward. I tend to agree more with the article, at least in theory. Test affects the before, oxytocin the after. The highest levels of Oxytocin experienced by any are post partum women. It’s not strictly a reward or feel-good hormone in the dopamine sense, but more generally bonding and belonging and sense of well-being. I didn’t read how they affect the pathway though. Seems like a dangerous thing to tamper with. Could be abused
I have heard that......................
Good one but how about Saltpeter?
Potassium nitrate
For every cheating man.. there’s a woman.
Are there pills for them too?
The thought of giving that to males seems like it could really mess up your head?!
Because only men are capable of adultery....
“.......“significant positive correlations between oxytocin levels and .... hypersexual behaviour”........” As just about everyone in a hard science knows correlation is not causation.
My favorite such example was a study of juvenile delinquents which correlated them as drinking more milk. That is, milk drinking correlated to more violent juvenile delinquency. Someone pointed out that in the sample, bigger and stronger kids tended to have better nutrition and kids who were bigger and stronger could succeed at being more violent. Which doesn't mean we should deny protein, vitamins and minerals to all children to prevent them from being violent.
I asked my wife what she wanted to do for our anniversary. She said “I want to do something I’ve never done before.” I said , “OK you can clean the house.”
