I've read about the orgasmatron. Seems like a big ripoff to me, although an experiment had been done on a corpse using the same type of technology. They were able to induce by triggering a set of nerves or muscle located in the spinal cord. But... she was dead.

If a woman cannot experience an orgasm, should her option be a trip to the doctor? Or should she go back to basics and re-educate herself on the female anatomy? Maybe a bit of both..

I would love to see this documentary. I think there are a lot of interesting aspects to a female viagra. One aspect is the fact that money overrides any other social constraints that surround how women are not suppose to be sexual. They are sexualized, but not allowed to be sexual beings and by putting out a female viagra, in a way is acknowledging female sexuality. When viagra for men came out, it sort of made sense in how it supports the stereotype that men want sex all the time and this pill gives them the ability to do so. However I do agree with Christina and others that the answer is not in a pill, but in the social dichotomies that exist for women and the difficulty for women to be able to really learn about our anatomy. I guess what I am trying to say is that as much as I have negative feelings towards the idea that an answer can be found in a pill, does anyone think that there could be some positive result in its release in promoting female sexuality? Or do you think that, that issue could prevent its release? Even if the company tries to medicalize the issue, there is still a base of sex.

Also Christina I think I saw a documentary on TV about women that participated in clinical trials for that orgasmatron and not surprizingly it did not work for all the women. They saldy seeked out the clinical trial from all over the world because of their struggle with the inability to orgasm or feel pleasure during sex. It might be something interesting to look up?

I'm curious if this actually made you aroused and made orgasm easier?

I took Cialis - which gave me erections, so it did work as stated. However, just because I had an erection, didn't mean I was aroused. (Still happy to please my partner, though!)

I saw this film. It's okay as far as it goes. Skipping over the fact that it should not have taken 10 years to make, two crucial issues were left out: one is the whole database that Betty and her colleagues-in-orgasm have created; and the second is the OTHER big pharma industry that has suppressed sexual desire, which is antidepressants. I could not believe that such a crucial, widespread causative factor was left out of this documentary.

More another time.
