"a pill should be made to help them with juggling housework, raising kids, excelling at their jobs, being socially perfect, AND being content with their partners’ practical approaches to sex, if that is the case", its called Prozac :)

I love the part about the pill that would help “with juggling housework, raising kids, excelling at their jobs, being socially perfect, AND being content with their partners’ practical approaches to sex, if that is the case.”
Perfect! You took the words right out of my mouth, dear. Well, maybe my brain. In any case, all you forgot in the juggling list was the part about being a beauty queen and having the figure of a supermodel even after having 5 kids.

I have a female patient who has been taking three tablets of Viagra daily. Viagra helps patients with pulmonary hypertension ( a lung disease). I haven’t asked her yet about her sexual activity but I doubt it’s different now, her illness takes all the libido away

Libido should come with an on-off switch. It’s a design flaw

Viagra and related products work by increasing blood supply to areas in question to mimic the natural response in the healthy and fit. We can not equate desire, arousal and ability to enjoy. No amount of Viagra and cialis can help arouse a male whose mind is pre-occupied with how to pay the rent or the electric bill or whatever. These medications work only if the desire is there to start with and desire is controlled by the mind in both male and female. Once desire is there the drug can set a proper biological response leading to arousal. This theoritically should apply to women physiology too although to lesser degree. However there is also the placebo effect in some which means if it is supposed to work this way it is going to work this way in a limited percentage of subjects. Physiologically and pharmaclogically speaking the drugs works the same in both males and females i,e increase blood supply but what makes each gender tick is a different story altogether. Saying that man is more physics and less brain have been proved a myth as many studies proved that women are also attracted to a set of physical attributes considered desirable same way as men are attracted but to a different set attributes. I would not take many psychology theories as the last ones as this is evolving science as scientists are unravelling the mystries of the human brain and mind, example - many new studies question bereavement couseling now and believe it delays closure while it is still the rage now.
A new rage in creating desire as opposed to arousal is dappling in the science of pheromones emitted by males and females in humans. Combine these two drugs together and may be you got a magic bullet to a large extent but still you have to contend with the mind as pheromones does not explain attraction to same gender.
