How sex is represented in pharmaceutical research (8)
- Desire is strong and spontaneous rather than reactive and responsive
- Orgasms are goals to be acheived
- Sex is PIV intercourse and should be frequent and novel
- Other sex activities are not assessed and inferior to PIV
- Life events like child biurht/illness shouldn’t intrude sex
- Sex is the glue that holds relationships
- Sex is vital/healthy and central part of relationships
- Male desire/orgasm is uncomplicated and present. womens difficult and time consuming
Flibanserin
Menopause drug that got approved even though its not effective enough and has lots of side-effects. Likely accepted by FDA due to ;even the score’ event
Even the score
Dumb ass meeting where women with self proclaimed sexual dysfunction claimed they had the right to medical help to treat low desire. Highly problematic as they adhere to the pharmasist definition of sex instead of understanding the pscyhological aspect.
Limits of clinical trials
Lacks defenition for the word sex. Only on WEIRD and even lacked women participants. Drugs not tested against other treatments like FUCKING THERAPY.
