woman-viagra.jpgViagra is blue for a reason. The little blue pill is associated with testosterones and male sexual performance. In the eternal battle of the sexes, the pink pill – Viagra for women – is the next big money-spinner.

Female sexual dysfunction is as much an acute and global problem as male sexual dysfunction, though probably less publicised in the media and ribald jokes. The desire and yearning for a satisfying sex life is the twenty-first century woman’s right, along with the right to have multiple sexual partners and to be single mothers.

Imagine the millions of women all over the world who have been silently suffering sexual dysfunction being liberated from their torment and humiliation. Orgasm and sexual pleasure can be bought over the counter for such a cheap price that it is unbelievable. While the Pill used to refer to oral contraceptives, it may instead refer to real sexual liberation for women in the future.

But pink Viagra is not yet a reality. And critics, notable feminists, are not very sure that it is a Godsend for women because it may mask the real problems behind the gals’ inability to enjoy sex, which are exhaustion from job and family demands, or, the lack of sexual stimulation and foreplay by their partners before sex. Viagra is seen as a commercial or exotic gimmick which does not address the real issues. And it may be abused by call girls or teenagers to boost libido, with the dire consequence of increased unwanted pregnancy and abortion.

However, sex always sells. When it comes in a blue pill for men and pink pill for women, the thought itself can drive researchers and pharmaceutical companies to have multiple orgasms. Move aside, Ecstasy or other party drugs, sexy lingerie and porno videos. Viagra for the man and woman will make them truly equal in bed.
