Quote:Flibanserin does not work in the same way as Viagra, which increases blood flow, a simple biological function. Flibanserin, which was first studied as an antidepressant, changes brain chemistry.

Do women actually want this?

A drug to alter female brain chemistry to resolve problems caused by all the other drugs that alter female brain chemistry (prozac, the pill etc.)

Can't wait to see what new exciting psychotic reactions this causes in the estimated 25% American women already heavily doped up on bipolar, anti-depressant, and opiate pharmaceuticals.

What could possibly go wrong, indeed.

I hope it works. A lot of the sexual frustration men face is women losing their sex drive in their mid to late 30's. So you have men from 16 up to 60+ looking for sexual partners and the number of women who have a drive at all almost half that number.

Maybe if women over 35 were able to get their sex drive up, then they wouldn't need so many anti-depressants.

I am hopeful this works. I don't think women realize how much power this will take from them if it works, and I hope they don't figure it out.

So they found a drug that can make women be temporarily attracted (or just plain horny) to their "safe, good provider, good father, boring" husbands. I wonder if it makes them want sex in general or it uses hormones to make them want the safe provider only. If it's the former this could be very dangerous for married men. If it's the latter this drug could save many marriages and be a miracle cure for safe provider husbands everywhere.

Remember, the loss of sex drive that women experience has to do with them settling down with a "nice guy" but remembering their glory days with the exciting bad-boys.

Yeah I guess so, but do women really need a drug to open their legs? I thought the cure for beta guys stuck in sexless marriages was prostitutes. They will probably end up paying less then some trumped up drug.

Will they rename it "Money"?

Hmmm... I suspect women don't lose sex drive at this age as much as any of the fallowing happens:

1)They lose sex drive for their domesticated beta husband.
2)They notice that they have started to age and stop sleeping with alphas to land a beta provider.
3)They become fat and old, sex gets too uncomfortable and they focus their pleasure on eating.

I know it's early, but:

Post: #12

the sexual revolution didn't work because of the natural asymmetry in sex drive between men and women, I believe this is a first attempt into correcting this asymmetry.

Post: #13

Wow. A real aphrodisiac.
I wonder if its covered under the Affordable Health Care Act?

Post: #14

Good luck with that. Can't wait for rape case based on this pill.

We don't need anymore fucking pills, we need more connection.

Sex really does sell.

Does anyone know what the active ingredient in this drug is? Side effects so far have including fainting and low blood pressure.

Holy shit, I never thought of that. Can you imagine a bunch of sex and the city wannabes slamming these pills before a 'girls night out'? Cheating slut central.

Though, I already imagine the nightmare of leathery old mummies popping these pills to enable their cabana boy lechery.

The drug is complete bullshit, doesn't work, and was only approved because of a "grassroots" campaign for equality that was in reality just a bunch of shills paid for and encouraged by the company that made the drug.

Quote:The controversial campaign by some women’s groups to win federal approval was waged under the banner Even the Score, which accused the F.D.A. of gender bias because it had approved Viagra and other drugs to help men have sex while leaving women without options. The participants in the campaign had been brought together by a consultant to Sprout Pharmaceuticals, the developer of flibanserin.

Quote:“To approve this drug will set the worst kind of precedent — that companies that spend enough money can force the F.D.A. to approve useless or dangerous drugs,” Dr. Adriane Fugh-Berman of Georgetown University told the committee Thursday.

Quote:Three clinical trials testing flibanserin were consistent in their results. The women who took part were having an average of two to three of what they defined as “sexually satisfying events” per month when the studies began. Once they started taking the drug, the number of such events increased, but by only about one event per month more than for women in the trial who got a placebo.

Women getting flibanserin also reported on monthly questionnaires that they felt more desire, although the difference compared with a placebo was only about 0.3 points on a scale ranging from 1.2 to 6.0.

Quote:The side effects of most concern to the F.D.A. were low blood pressure and fainting. While these were rare in the clinical trials, they seemed to raise the risk of accidental injury, with one woman having a concussion when she fell.

Several speakers opposed approval, saying the data had not changed much from when the drug was rejected. Dr. Fugh-Berman of PharmedOut called flibanserin “a mediocre aphrodisiac with scary side effects.” She said that the clinical trials were restricted to healthy women, but that if approved the drug would be used by a wider range of women, resulting in “an epidemic of adverse events.

Just more of the pharmaceutical industry being evil. Business as usual. I just found this on the wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flibanserin

Quote:The balance between these systems is relevant for a healthy sexual response. By modulating these neurotransmitters in selective brain areas, flibanserin, a 5-HT1A receptor agonist and 5-HT2A receptor antagonist, is likely to restore the balance between these neurotransmitter systems.[12][13] 5-HT1A receptor activation likely plays a significant role in the empathogenic effects of serotonin releasing agents (SRAs) like MDMA ("Ecstasy") as well.[14]

So basically, the drug is a mild ecstasy that just got legalized. I guarantee you college kids are gonna try to get their hands on this, grind it up and snort it for some good times. It may be easier to get than molly.

There is zero chance this doesn't end up with a bunch of broads going out on "Filba nights" where they all take one and head out to the club, get drunk and fuck whatever is alpha enough to be in their vicinity at closing time.

Also judging by the side effects there will be a lot of chicks passing out in public and being hospitalized.

Finally the people who ask "HER BODY HER CHOICE WHY CAN'T YOU STAY OUT OF HER DECISION MAKING" will have their answer.

I have been told numerous times by women that their sex drive skyrocketed around age 38-41, to the point that they are constantly horny and it drives them crazy. My theory is that the body senses that there aren't many eggs left and is trying to reproduce again before menopause. A lot of women in their late 30s to mid 40's who stay relatively fit are sex machines. They are way more aggressive and into fucking than a lot of younger women.

I have also been told multiple times that their sex drive, which had been minimal for years during their marriage, suddenly returned as soon as they got divorced. Which is why I like to target women who have been divorced in the last 3 or 4 years, or even better are recently separated but still in the legal divorce process. The separated ones are absolute cock fiends.

Could increase the number of potential ONS once it really gets mainstream...

I would be very careful about giving this to a girlfriend, wife or fuck buddy. If she can satisfy you and she wants more what can you do? The downfall of a man can be his dick telling him what to do and we're the most logical of the species. I've never used Viagra but I can imagine what it feels like.

Now give the same effect to women and it will get very messy for those in relationships.

The big pharma is at it again, trying to profit from meds that have a different function, but relabeling them to make money, and cause casualties in the end. Women are crazy enough as it is. Just because that patent was expensive... tsk... tsk...
