Do feminists feel slighted by the pharmaceutical companies who advertise Viagra but no female counterpart?

Question

Is it sexist of the drug companies, or is it the fact that there is just no demand for the product?

Answer 1

I don't think the need is as great. If a man can't get hard he needs help, if a woman can't get wet she can buy stuff over the counter.

Some women benefit from Viagra more than the men who take it if you get my drift. lol

Franzia: That's not personal. It's not about men or women, its all about the almighty dollar (idiocy).

Answer 2

Frankly, i'm torn in this difficulty. in my opinion, I actual have some scientific issues and that i'm consistently discovering the right thank you to discover the help i %. i'd desire to assert ninety 9% of the time i'm searching for homeopathic drugs. the venture is, medical doctors are no longer counseled on all it is on the industry accessible. in case you ever watch classes the place they diagnose ailment many circumstances the medical doctors are mystified (because of the fact they simply be attentive to approximately their very very own particular field of drugs which leaves out the different ninety 9%.) oftentimes, it extremely is the mum and dad or kinfolk who discover the "therapy" by using learn. Now, i don't be attentive to if all and sundry has extremely stumbled on what they needed although a pharmaceutical upload because of the fact those drugs are geared in the direction of an exceedingly super aim audience. All that reported, No, i think of they might desire to no longer be allowed to sell yet launch all comments on new drugs on the information superhighway for persons to discover in the event that they % to seek. I comprehend this cuts out a significant volume of persons regardless of if it extremely is the terrific option i will think of of. Drug agencies are drug pushers and medical doctors are given incentives to prescribe the drugs. Now, that area would desire to be regulated or completed away with because of the fact medical doctors finally end up being like the different drug pusher.

Answer 3

Yes. There are products to lube up a dry vagina, but nothing (to my knowledge) that affects or enhances female orgasm.

In addition, some of the same insurance companies that pay for Viagra refuse to pay for oral contraceptives.

Answer 4

It bugs me that people just assume sexism when something is offered for one gender and not the other. As if they do it on purpose.
The drug companies WANT to sell a female equivalent of Viagra, but they haven't been able to develop one yet. They have already spend millions of dollars and have been doing lots and lots of studies over many, many years, and their conclusion thus far has been...
Women seem to be more complicated than men.

Answer 5

This anti-feminist doesn't worry about things like that. That's because she has a secret up her sleeve. It's called Dong Quai. There're, also some fruits, such as mangoes, that get the love juices a flowing It is said the the mango flower is shaped a woman's ovaries. and the fruit itself is shaped like her breast. I'd just like to make another short comment and I'm not bragging, just stating a fact, at least for myself, I've birthed five kids and I never get tired of sex. I guess it depends upon the woman..

Answer 6

No, but we did feel slighted when, about a decade ago, lots of insurance companies were gleefully shelling out money for their customers to get Viagra, but not for women to get fricking *oral contraception*.

Gee, I can't figure out which one is more important and useful. Is this a case of sexism or just outright idiocy?

Answer 7

Umm...I think drug companies certainly need to develop a good drug for women who lose their desire to have sex once they fall into motherhood and marriage. I believe this to be somewhat of a major problem, actually.

Answer 8

The absolute WORST thing they've done is link Elvis to their product, signing "Viva Viagra".
There is a product for women, ask any pharmacist or your Dr.

Answer 9

Well, as much as feminists would love to have one, most women do not have a penis. So Viagra for women would not make sense.

Answer 10

I never thought about it really. Women seem to have more issues than men in that department anyway, but maybe women aren't more vocal about it. We - and men brush it off as "our problem" not theirs. As long as they acheive their goal, they are happy. Well, just because we get pregnant doesn't mean we feel satisified. (if you know what I mean.)
