FoxNews ^

Posted on 07/07/2008 1:52:51 PM PDT by Scythian

You know that old adage ‘use it or lose it’?

The saying can now be applied toward men and sex, according to new research involving erectile dysfunction, Reuters reported Monday.

The July issue of the American Journal of Medicine reports that older men who have sex more than once a week are less likely to develop ED.

Hmmmmm, Let’s try it this way: I wish they made a little pink pill for the fairer sex. To correct Female Receptor Disfunction.

It exists--I heard it's called a Porsche...or maybe a Ferrari, I forget...

Aw heck, maybe flowers will work.

Didn't for me.

She started accusing me of having an affair EVERY TIME I brought flowers home. (I wasn't)

This gets really old really fast.

It wasn't long before she started bitching that I didn't bring her flowers anymore...

Obamacare will provide one... but you'll have a longer wait than a Canadian MRI patient.

Null,

Send you wife an online copy of “The Wifely Duty” by Caitlin Flanagan, published in Atlantic Monthly a few years ago, and available online at:

http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200301/flanagan

It’s both a humorous and serious look at the disconnect between men and their wives and, surprisingly, takes the man’s perspective.

It turned around my relationship with my wife. I’ll tell you more details in private mail if you wish. Suffice it to say that the deal-closing line with my better half was when I told her, “I married you forever but if you want me to be less grumpy in middle age and later, you might ...”

Another tip to you, instead of flowers, might be to do the dishes. Tell her (truthfully) why. Dobson said that “sex begins in the kitchen.”

Cheers and good luck.

I have no problem with at least once a week, but do I actually have to be awake? ;-)

If my husband tried that line on me, I’d tell him nice try, it takes two to want to tango. He can certainly go take his medicine by himself if he needs to.”

Wow, I am surprised your husband is still around!!

So if once per week is good, is 15-20 times per week really really really good for the circulation??

Maybe, maybe not, but this malady probably lies more in the area of some real physical reason rather than “use it or lose “, or “it’s all in your head.” For decades, ulcers were cause by emotions and stress, but now they’re caused by the H. Pylori bacteria. Mental (the real ones) conditions are now believed to be imbalances in brain chemistry.

For ED, clogged arteries are the first thing to consider. We hear more and more that plaque build-up starts at earlier and earlier ages. And, viagara and others work by causing a dilation of the arteries, by increasing nitric oxide levels which causes the dilation.

Most things that were all in our heads really weren’t, and aren’t. The psychological does play a role I expect, but much less a role than it’s been assigned over the decades of modern medicine.

Those using it are probably the ones with the healthiest arteries.
