CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) – A drug that could do for women what Viagra has done for men is being tested at the University of Virginia. The drug is a testosterone-laden ointment called LibiGel and it’s intended to boost the libido of women who have lost interest in sex. It will be prescribed at UVa in coming months to women who are suffering from hypoactive sexual desire disorder.
A testosterone-laden ointment, eh?
“May I help you rub in your ointment?”
LibiGel comes in a pump bottle. The woman rubs the small dot of gel into the skin of her upper arm.
Oh. Darn.
In its second-phase clinical trials at 17 institutions, LibiGel led to a 283 percent increase of satisfying sexual encounters for the women taking the drug.
Hope Hillary! doesn’t hear about this.

Oh. Darn. IS the universal male reaction to this. Didn’t Oprah feature a clit arousal cream?
Anyhoo. Sex deprived husbands will be violating their prissy sex manipulating wives’ arms, dabbing LibiGel at unsuspecting moments. It will be the new domestic violence claim.

I know. All I could think when I read the story is this is a product for MEN!
Dabs of LibiGel like a moisturizer cream during a massage? Men dabbing at random at Night Clubs like Ecstasy.
“You look tense honey, let me give you a back rub, you dooooooo soooooooo much”

Actually, I revise that…over 50 women will be the new vogue. They will buy it like gangbusters and viagra might not keep up.
Comment by daleyrocks on 1/1 @ 1:05 am #
I’m not completely sure. I foresee a big problem with men being able to convince doctors to prescribe the product without seeing the patient, or should I say the person intended to consume the product.

TS – Your number 7 – Is that wrong?
Comment by Topsecretk9 on 1/1 @ 1:37 am #
Daley — Is that wrong?
I’m hoping it’s not a “translation” comment thing
Boomer Dab!
but I DO see the over 50 crowd ladies requesting this (more than the 20-30 sex manipulator age) and I imagine with viagra’s timing issue…50 will be the new hot!
Comment by Jeff on 1/1 @ 1:48 am #
There’s a peculiar equivocation at work here. Viagra causes the penis to become protuberant. Viagra doesn’t increase a man’s sex drive. This new drug supposedly increases a woman’s desire for sex. Very different.
Knowing women in the 45-55 age group, an increase in their sex drive will not help their husbands but will benefit the young stud at the local hiphop club.

Cindy,
Increase your libido all you like, you still have to find a man who’d have you ‘fore it made a difference.
Comment by The Lost Dog on 1/1 @ 3:25 am #
Cindy –
I want you so bad!
I think it is your mind that makes you so desirable. I mean, how could any real man resist your incredible mental aptitude, and your rational approach to life?? Boner up to HERE, babe!
I hate to say it, but you are so hot that I want to pork the newspaper pages that your name appears on. THAT’S how hot you really are!!!!
Sorry. Sometimes I just can’t help myself…

Your logic does not compute. Men are impervious to bad jokes as you well know.
Also, don’t worry about the extra special he-man flatulence side effects. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

Actually, I think it’s called “a party foul”. And I am a pro at party fouls.
BTW (OT), Court TV is now Tru-TV, and like being in a really shabby trailer park, I just can’t take my eyes off of it. I keep hoping to discover Hillary Swank walking out the door of one of the double wides.
Comment by CraigC on 1/1 @ 1:05 pm #

No, a 238% increase over zero is a 238% increase. Now, 238 times zero would still be zero.
Comment by happyfeet on 1/1 @ 1:19 pm #
no one said there was gonna be math
Comment by JD on 1/1 @ 1:19 pm #
So, a 238 percent increase over 0 equals what ?

It sounds like this makes the orgasm easier or more fun for the woman, which is a good thing. A drug that would stimulate the desire to engage in the activities that lead to said orgasm, priceless.

Also I was kind of hopeful about today. I’m wearing my new CafePress PW t-shirt and I’m gonna use my new PW mug for coffee later after I wash it. It sure is pretty.
Comment by McGehee on 1/1 @ 2:01 pm #
A 283% increase over zero is the same as 2.83 times zero.
Plus, I think the correct answer when you divide something by zero, should be infinity.
Comment by happyfeet on 1/1 @ 2:02 pm #
Ok now McGehee’s gone and done it.
Comment by McGehee on 1/1 @ 2:03 pm #
So, dividing a woman’s interest in having sex, by her interest in having sex with me, that should amount to something, right there.
Comment by JD on 1/1 @ 2:06 pm #
If you call missing my alma mater’s first trip to the Rose Bowl in almost 25 years an inconvenience …. I will never fly through O’Hare intentionally again.
Comment by happyfeet on 1/1 @ 2:07 pm #
Crap. And that’s such a heinous airport to be stuck in on top of that.
Comment by daleyrocks on 1/1 @ 2:18 pm #
JD – Cindy Sheehan and the Code Pinkos are going to disrupt the game, so it will probably wind up being rescheduled. You won’t miss anything.
I don’t know why you ever said anything mean about that woman.

Comment by Pablo on 1/1 @ 2:35 pm #
As long as you don’t do it between September and May, you should be OK. Maybe. Otherwise, unless you’re fond of airport hospitality it’s probably not a good idea.
Comment by CraigC on 1/1 @ 2:39 pm #
So what did they base their figure of a 238% increase on? This is the real world colliding the math world. McGehee, technically, you’re right, in that mathematically, (2.38)(0)=0. But if a woman has no interest in sex, and this drug gives her an interest in sex, then there’s an increase in her interest in sex. You could calculate it based on the moment she has any interest. So, let’s say that it’s >0
Comment by CraigC on 1/1 @ 2:41 pm #
Heh. My formula got cut off because it was interpreted as an HTML command. It was “greater than zero, but less than 2.38.”
Comment by Pablo on 1/1 @ 2:41 pm #
Back on topic, I figure it will take about 15 minutes after hitting the market before the first guy tries it. The results will be predictable.
Comment by CraigC on 1/1 @ 2:44 pm #
Or “greater than zero and less than 2.38.” Sheesh.
Comment by happyfeet on 1/1 @ 2:47 pm #
These are pictures. You can look at them. Some of them are neat. If you scroll down there’s an old Pulitzer winner I had never seen before. It’s very sad.
Comment by CraigC on 1/1 @ 2:47 pm #
And I don’t think we need to wonder where they’ll rub it, Pablo. The question will be, “Is it working, or is it just the rubbing?”

“So, dividing a woman’s interest in having sex, by her interest in having sex with me, that should amount to something, right there.”
Yeah. What it amounts to is no sex for the rest of your life. At least not with anyone you’d LIKE to have sex with…
And that conundrum is the scourge of my life. It’s sort of like what Groucho said about country clubs.
It’s kinda like Catch-22.
I would love to have a woman to “brighten my life”, but I just can’t bring myself to sleep with any woman who would go home with me. I figure that my salad days are way gone, and if someone wants to do that with me, there has got to be something wrong with her.
Or maybe she has been massaging her arm?
Heh.

I have to admit that the first thing I thought of when I read this was “i cannot wait to try that”. Just a drop, Never. I was planning on slathering it on me like bacon grease.
Comment by JD on 1/1 @ 3:12 pm #
The way Michael Moore would slather it on Rosie before going to work. After shaving her back hair.
Comment by daleyrocks on 1/1 @ 3:22 pm #
JD – The problem with Moore is you’d have to strap him to a board and then tilt it up feet first to get his belly out of the way of his dick. I’m not sure who would be working on who under those circumstances.
You could probably grab one of Rosie’s fat folds and have yourself a good time without her noticing. Should be prelubed with sweat.

Bah, none of us men REALLY want nympho’s for wives. It throws the whole thing out the window. I have grown to enjoy looking forward to it. It makes my week.
Also, if Hillary finds out, all it really means is that her “lover” might be forced to sodomize her with dildo on a more frequent basis.
Bill probably gets it wherever and whenever he wants.

That would be wonderful, except that I live in CT. I would have to ask my A-X-W (almost ex-wife) for the money. Thank you, God. I am a street urchin once more…
And I’m really not at a loss for women to sleep with. It’s just that I am old enough to take a minute or two to see who is carrying those oh-so-desirable parts around.
Bummer, man. When I was younger, I didn’t give two shits about how insane the proprieter was. I just wanted those jeans (and other variuos pieces of clothing) to be on the floor by my bed.
I have had my fun, and am now paying the price. Perhaps sobriety has something to do with it. Tequila was always a magic elixer in my life…until it turned me grey and yellow, and I started pissing grape juice.
Life is a highway…

I like chicken quite a bit. I think about reading next to a fireplace. It’s night time and snowing, but yet the moonlight is somehow visible making the whole land sparkle like heaven. There is a home made chicken pot pie in the oven. Made from farm fresh ingredients, which is strange because its winter.
Still in this perfect scenario where I don’t even have to take Ambien to get to sleep, there is one thing missing.
Ok, several things; I am not watching a Hillary vs. Indian national hottie cooter battle and Ron Paul is president.
If those things come to pass, America will be America again!
