Viagra: a decade of sexual revolution

This drug has revolutionized the world of sex. Before Viagra, impotence meant shame and often break, including in the most solid couples. The blue pill and its amazing ability to restore erectile function in some men has led to a revolution as great as the contraceptive pill at the time.

"Over 20% of failures are due to the fact that man has erectile dysfunction," says Dr Graham Jackson, a cardiologist in London and specialist in sexual disorders. "A man may suffer martyrdom when performance is not as it considers should be. The partners are mostly friendly and supportive, but some can be cruel. When you are facing you great lads crying like babies, that you do dream of one thing: find a way to solve their problems as quickly as possible. That's what Viagra has done for many patients who come to my consultation.

The original blue pill therefore brought joy to many households. But it has also, in many cases, negative consequences. "The older men become more efficient, so they go where the grass is greener, or younger," says Raoul Felder, the New York lawyer specializing in divorces, which has recently defended the wife a man of 70 years who had made the wrong after he started taking Viagra. In the retirement community in Florida, there is recently a soaring rate of sexually transmitted diseases among elderly men, who are now more sex. And the phenomenon is not just the United States. "I see an exponential increase of divorce cases which originally facilitated by infidelity Viagra," says James Stewart and, of London law firm Manche.
