Sex In A Man's World

     tRuth As I See It is published in one of our county papers.  I send the blog to the editor and she chooses which one she wants to go to print.  I never know which one it is until the paper comes out.

     This blog won't be one of them because it contains a topic that people usually are not comfortable talking about.  Sex.

     Sex is as natural as breathing and as far as I'm aware, it's the only thing that will make sure the human race continues on this planet.

     No, I don't think it is necessary to discuss sex at the dinner table or loudly in public and I don't think it's necessary to talk about it all the time.  Although, if you want to clear the room of your adult children,  just the mere thought of parents doing the deed will send them scattering.  But, as much as it is still considered a taboo subject, a recent survey discovered people think about it more than just about any other topic.

     I made a comment over the weekend on Facebook that if I saw one more commercial for a pill to help with male E.D. I thought perhaps I just might throw up.  Seriously, how many men do you think actually ask their doctor if their heart is healthy enough for sex?  I'm guessing that most men could not think of a better way to kick the bucket.  Some of the side effects for these pills are a little scary but that four hour thing is probably a man's dream come true.
    
     Fifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James sold a lot of copies. I recently saw an article that reported her income from her trilogy at $55 million.  It's full of sex.  If you enjoy reading about sex and haven't read her books, you won't be disappointed.  But even E.L. James didn't have a scene with two people sitting in matching ball and claw feet bathtubs holding hands, gazing out at the scenery. Not my idea of romance.

     I wasn't bashing the E.D. problem or the medication, I was just being funny.  It's my nature, I'm 90% funny and the other 10% is very dark.   My biggest gripe about these commercials is, the product is for men.  Where's our stuff?  The stuff for the ladies? Women lose their libido too, as the hormones begin to fade, but for some reason that is considered a natural process.  I guess we are not supposed to be good for much, once the reproductive part ends and so it seems a woman's needs do not rank as important as a man's.

     That is such a load of crap.  

     There is an alternative hormone replacement therapy out there called bio-identical hormones.  They are made with wild yams and soybeans and when constructed are biologically identical to what the body produces.  They are also considered safer than what Big Pharma has to offer women but, unfortunately, these natural ingredients cannot be patented so you won't hear much about them.

     They have the ability to bring back muscle tone, clear the brain, reduce depression and yes, return the libido.  Are there side effects? Yes, but there probably is not a medication in your home that doesn't have side effects.   Bio-identical hormones, taken from a reputable doctor who specializes in them and monitors your progress, can bring back the self you used to be. 

     Don't bother asking your doctor about them for two reasons:  One, they usually won't have any idea what you're talking about and two, if they do, all they have heard is that they are dangerous.  I think the worst side effect is that health insurance won't cover them and that makes them expensive. 

     Imagine how much more productive the female race could be if we had something to bring back the feelings of our past younger days.

     Another thing we don't hear about is that women can benefit from testosterone too.  We actually produce it in our youth.  

     In the meantime, until women's needs are deemed important, if some guy is slathering testosterone in his armpit, don't put your face there.
