Female Viagra . . . ?
» Erotic Technology
I've known some lustful women and some sensitive men. Still I won't pretend that I have any idea if the average female's sexuality differs from the average male's. To heck with average people. But there wasn't any reason to expect - unless you were going to get rich from it - that testosterone patches would give women better sex lives.
Women's sexuality is complex, affected more deeply than men's sex drive by mood, self-esteem and relationship issues. It has never been an easy thing to capture - or to fix when it goes awry. It took years for the FDA and experts to devise ways to measure improvements in a woman's libido, and many still argue that counting "satisfying sexual events" is a gauge better suited to men than women.
