Aphrodisiac
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about agents increasing sexual desire. For the album by Brandy, see Afrodisiac.
An aphrodisiac is an agent which increases sexual desire[1]. The name comes from the Greek goddess of Sensuality Aphrodite.

Throughout history, many foods, drinks (such as Mama Juana), wines, and behaviors have had a reputation for making sex more attainable and/or pleasurable, though from a historical and scientific standpoint, many have had their desired results simply because their users have chosen to believe they will be effective (the placebo effect). Medical science has not substantiated claims that any particular food increases sexual desire or performance.

Some aphrodisiacs appear to gain their reputation from the principles of sympathetic magic, e.g. oysters, due to their shape. This also explains the trade in the phallic-looking horn of the rhinoceros, which is endangering this animal. Other animal-based aphrodisiacs gain their reputation from the apparent virility or aggressiveness of the animal source - such as tiger penis - also endangering the species. Turtle eggs, eaten raw with salt and lime juice, are also said to be an aphrodisiac, leading to the poaching of many turtles, which are cut up to extract their eggs. However, most poachers dig up freshly laid turtle nests and very rarely cut up turtles to extract eggs.

Answer 3

An aphrodisiac is a food item that stimulates sexual desire.
Oysters are rumoured to be aphrodisiacal. And strawberries and chocolate, though it's not entirely known if they are true.

Oysters suggest the shape of the vulva.
