VIAGRA PARTY!!!!!

I have heard of the term Penis Envy, but never believed I would be a person who could be defined by such a definition. Penis envy in Freudian psychoanalysis refers to the theorized reaction of a girl during her psychosexual development to the realization that she does not have a penis. Freud considered this realization a defining moment in the development of gender and sexual identity for women. According to Freud, the parallel reaction in boys to the realization that girls do not have a penis is castration anxiety. In contemporary culture, the term sometimes refers inexactly or metaphorically to women who are presumed to wish they were men.

I must admit it must be great to be a man these days. I mean, how many pieces of legislation have we voted on lately or in the past ten years regarding male reproductive rights. The penis is safely tucked away from the intrusive long arm (hand) of the law. What a peaceful existence. On the other hand the uterus has been in the spotlight forever.

The news coverage has been about defunding Planned Parenthood, overturning Roe vs Wade, and the usage of contraceptives. We have a Republican running for president, Rick Santorum, being very open about how he feels about the deterioration of the family unit and America as a whole. A major player in America's demise is people choosing not to get married before having children. I agree children should be born into a two parent household, but I do not believe it should become law. Santorum has spoken up and out about contraceptives:

                                                        Santorum and the 'Anti-contraception' Conservatives

In the past week, Rick Santorum, the newest shooting star in the Republican firmament, has stunned national audiences by suggesting that the U.S. Supreme Court in 1965 erred in overturning a Connecticut law banning contraception. Wow. Did he really mean that? Surely it must have been another slip of the Santorum tongue.

Apparently not. Back in October, when Santorum was still an asterisk in the polls, he told CaffeinatedThoughts.com, "One of the things I will talk about, that no president has talked about before, is I think the dangers of contraception in this country." As he went on to explain in the interview, contraception is "a license to do things in a sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be."

The escalating assault on contraception is really a war on women and their reproductive health and rights. That it has gotten as far as it has in the past 18 months is unnerving. Santorum may not be the next president of the United States or even the Republican nominee in 2012, but he is not the end of the "anti-contraception" conservatives.

Has anyone ever thought about getting ahead of the abortion problem such as looking at the fact that teen girls are being impregnated by adult men, men are taking Viagra not for procreation reasons, but for recreation, for reasons of pride, and even at the risk of their own death?

69% of unmarried adolescent girls became pregnant when their partners were 6 or more years older, 3.7 times the pregnancy rate of those whose partners were no more than two years older (Darroch et al., 1999). According to the Vermont Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 3.5% of girls age 13–15 reported voluntary sex with adult men (Leitenberg & Saltzman, 2000). The research confirms stereotypes about the risk for teenage girls: that statutory relationships carry higher risks of pregnancy, single-parenthood, and other psychosocial problems. For example, 69% of unmarried adolescent girls became pregnant when their partners were 6 or more years older, 3.7 times the pregnancy rate of those whose partners were no more than two years older (Darroch et al., 1999). Some of this higher rate may reflect the fact that, in such older partner relationships, the teens are more likely to be living with the man and may be intending to start a family. Nonetheless, a majority of such pregnancies are unplanned (Darroch et al., 1999; Lindberg, Sonenstein, Ku, & Martinez, 1997), and the relationships with older partners may have a shorter overall duration (Lamb et al., 1986).

                    The Woman Who Invented Viagra Posted on March 30, 2011 by IP

Dr. Gill Samuels, director of vascular biology at Pfizer, oversaw the discovery of compounds for reducing hypertension and migraines. More famously, she was part of a team of thousands working at Pfizer that invented Viagra, as she humbly lets everyone know. The discovery, she said, came in 1985 after 13 years of intense team work and laboratory experiments. She said: "We were looking at various disorders in vascular contraction when we came across this new class of compound that could relax blood vessels. I have heard people call it a lifestyle drug but I don't think of it like that. It has caused men to think differently about their health. It has de-stigmatized erectile health and as someone who had to review all the letters of patients, who say 'It has stopped me killing myself' or 'It has stopped me hitting my wife', that I realize what a good medicine it is," she said.

Since becoming available in 1998, sildenafil, the chemical name of the little blue pill known as Viagra, has been the a leading treatment for erectile dysfunction; its primary competitors on the market are tadalafil (Cialis) and vardenafil (Levitra). It used to be that men had the upper hand when it came to confidence in the bedroom. But health experts say ever-younger men are increasingly turning to Viagra in a bid to keep up with modern women inspired by the strong female characters in films such as Sex And The City, starring Sarah Jessica Parker. Relationship therapists are also seeing a rise in the number of men in their 30s asking about the impotence drug, traditionally prescribed to those more than two decades older.

In clinical trials, the most common adverse effects of sildenafil use included headache, flushing, dyspepsia, nasal congestion and impaired vision, including photophobia and blurred vision. Some sildenafil users have complained of seeing everything tinted blue (cyanopsia).Some complained of blurriness and loss of peripheral vision. In July 2005, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found that sildenafil could lead to vision impairment in rare cases and a number of studies have linked sildenafil use with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

Rare but serious adverse effects found through post marketing surveillance include priapism, severe hypotension, myocardial infarction (heart attack), ventricular arrhythmias, stroke, increased intraocular pressure, and sudden hearing loss. As a result of these post marketing reports, in October 2007, the FDA announced that the labeling for all PDE5 inhibitors, including sildenafil, required a more prominent warning of the potential risk of sudden hearing loss.

Sildenafil's popularity with young adults has increased over the years. Sildenafil's trade name "Viagra" is widely recognized in popular culture, and the drug's association with treating erectile dysfunction has led to its recreational use. The reasons behind such use include the belief that the drug increases libido, improves sexual performance, or permanently increases penis sizE. Studies on the effects of Viagra when used recreationally are limited, but suggest that it has little effect when used by those not suffering from erectile dysfunction. In one study, a 25 mg dose was shown to cause no significant change in erectile quality, but did reduce the post-ejaculatory refractory time. This study also noted a significant placebo effect in the control group. Annual sales of Viagra peaked in 2008 at US$1,934 million. Nearly 6.5 million tablets of Viagra - launched by drugs firm Pfizer in 1998 - were issued in England in 2007, costing the NHS £35million. Research in 2004 found that taking the drug recreationally could affect fertility.

Unprescribed recreational use of sildenafil and other PDE-5 Inhibitors is noted as particularly high among users of illegal drugs.Sildenafil is sometimes used to counteract the effects of other substances, often illicit. Some users mix it with methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, ecstasy), other stimulants, or opiates in an attempt to compensate for the common side effect of erectile dysfunction, a combination known as "sextasy", "rockin' and rollin'," or "trail mix." Mixing with amyl nitrite is particularly dangerous and potentially fatal.

Abortion has been the lead word to all of the so called 'attacks' on women's rights. It is the life of the unborn child that is what is being defended. It is about murder. Some where in this discussion on the sanctity of life; the part of the man has been omitted. Scripture did not let them off of the hook when it came to the integrity of creating life. In chapter 9 of "When Will Eve Be Forgiven? I look at the value God put on the creation of life:

The primary purpose of a marriage in biblical times was to produce an heir. Each cycle of stories about the major ancestors shows the common theme of obtaining a male heir for the family and for the covenant with God. In Genesis 23:8-10 we read: ”Then Judah said to Onan, “Lie with your brother’s wife and fulfill your duty to her as a brother-in-law to produce offspring for your brother.” But Onan knew the offspring would not be his; so whenever he lay with his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground to keep from producing offspring for his brother. What he did was wicked in the Lord’s sight; so he put him to death also.”

The question that has to be pondered is was the Lord upset at the refusal to procreate or was the Lord displeased with Onan for not fulfilling his obligation? Both of the above are a failure to follow the directions of the Lord. God counted Onan as wicked. The practice of spilling one’s semen on the ground is one of the oldest known forms of birth control commonly known as the “withdrawal” method, which still remains an unreliable form of birth control practiced in the twenty-first century.

There is another mention of birth control in the Old Testament and it also has the connotation of it being wrong to prohibit the process of conception as found in Deuteronomy 23:1. In this chapter, it is listed as an offense that results in the exclusion from the assembly of the Lord. Here, in the first verse it is written, “No one who has been emasculated by crushing or cutting may enter the assembly of the Lord (NIV).” The King James Version is cruder and more to the point than the NIV, “He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.” There is no mistaking what this statement is saying. This had to be in reference to a crude form of male sterilization in order to prevent conception. It is a common practice by many males to have a vasectomy when children are no longer wanted.

When nature takes its course with women in menopause; childbearing ends. When impotence takes its toll on men Viagra sells boom. Is the intent for sexual pleasure or procreation?

I think by the biblical passages that men are creating murder by not allowing a child to be formed. It can be even a criminal act. Men should be charged with a crime for having sex with no intent of producing a child which is released in his semen each time there is an ejaculation. All of those dead future lives.
If you are caught with marajauna you can be charged with intent to sell. Caught with a written hit list you can be charged with a crime of plotting to kill. North Carolina Assault Laws say you don't even have to touch anyone to be charged with and found guilty of assault. All a state has to do to charge you with burglary is prove you had the intent to steal something or commit a crime.

Caught with a bottle of Viagra-intent to prevent life. In an attempt to “even things up” while the Virginia senate debated a controversial and upsetting anti-choice bill that would require abortion providers to force women to undergo a vaginal sonogram (an invasive procedure) before going through with the procedure, State Senator Janet Howell proposed an amendment — before obtaining a prescription for erectile dysfunction drugs, men would be subject to rectal exams and stress tests. And that makes Senator Janet Howell today’s official State Senatorial Hero.

I think Representative Jackie Speier said it best when she explained that not every woman is sitting around hoping to get pregnant just so they can have an abortion and if we are not careful the lives of children and mothers will be put in danger.

"I really planned to speak about something else but the gentleman from New Jersey just put my stomach in knots because I'm one of those women he spoke about just now," Speier said. "I had a procedure at 17 weeks pregnant with a child who moved from the vagina into the cervix. And that procedure that you just described is a procedure that I endured."


"I lost the baby," she continued. "And for you to stand on this floor and suggest that somehow this is a procedure that is either welcomed or done cavalierly or done without any thought, is preposterous."

"By targeting Planned Parenthood, the Pence Amendment will risk the lives and safety of millions of American women," said New York Democrat Louise Slaughter. "These proposed cuts to family planning represent the opening salvo in an all-out war on women's health - and I have been a soldier on the other side of that war for several decades."

She added that "It has been an absolute awful time for most of us who are such strong believers in the rights of women and women's health, and that women should have the ability to make decisions themselves."
