DH wants to try viagra...

Can anyone shed some light on what viagra achieves? I'm guessing on top of not performing foreplay it doesn't give you desire or passion - I'm thinking just an uncomfortable hardon? Is this right? Is it more physical or psychological? Is it worth trying once?

Is it reckless of him to take it when I think he does not suffer from erectile dysfunction?

it gives you a hard cock

not YOU obviously, otherwise we'd all be taking it

it can make it harder to achieve orgasm, so if that's a problem it might help

if he doesn't have any problems getting an erection, I'm not sure what he wants to achieve?

BecauseImWorthIt · 05/11/2008 21:15

God no - he'll be going for hours and hours and hours and hours and hours.

You will end up with a very chafed fanjo.

Massimo · 05/11/2008 21:28

I think he thinks it will give him desire and passion (like you have at the start of a relationship) and generally spice things up a bit.
We've been together for about 10 years and have a toddler so are trying to rediscover and improve our previous sexual relationship.

he needs a mistress for that

morningpaper · 05/11/2008 21:35

I'm teasing obviously

What about a night away?

whomovedmychocolate · 05/11/2008 21:39

A blindfold and a feather is much more effective in creating desire IME. He doesn't want to muck about with a drug which can give you a nine hour hard and has known side effects like blindness and sudden death unless he has problems with erectile dysfunction?

whomovedmychocolate · 05/11/2008 21:40

Nine hour hard on obviously

whomovedmychocolate · 05/11/2008 21:40

Tis a bugger on the bus the next morning if it's still there as well!

Massimo · 05/11/2008 21:40

Ouch! Been there, hence the problems.

And that's something a night away doesnt fix.

OMG perfect thread for me

My DH let me in on a little secret the other day that numerous friends of his take viagra even thought they have no erectile problems at all

apparently they want to be able to go for ages and not orgasm, apparently its quite the thing at the moment

sherby · 05/11/2008 21:42

apparently apparently

morningpaper · 05/11/2008 21:43

apparently its quite the thing at the moment

lol

sorry for my fauz pas there

what works for him and you? dressing up? I can recommend Primark for plentiful negligees that cover up your baby-belly....

stockings?

new and plentiful underwear?

high heels and boots?

morningpaper · 05/11/2008 21:45

what about taking a half-day off work once a month for lunch and the other?

BecauseImWorthIt · 05/11/2008 21:46

"apparently they want to be able to go for ages and not orgasm"

I'm not entirely sure what's in this for you!

BigGitPyromaniacDad · 05/11/2008 21:48

whatever did happen to mademez? Seeing this thread made me realise I have not seen her in ages.

zippitippitoes · 05/11/2008 21:49

big git you arent onservasnt enough she changed name but is very recognizable

morningpaper · 05/11/2008 21:51

Madamez is the first name changer I have ever recognised

So she must be bloody obvious

Massimo · 05/11/2008 21:52

But that's exactly what I think - what is in it for me? It's not like it is going to turn him into some sort of double-headed sexgod or improve his or my technique - that is only going to come through practice and communication which unfortunately makes everything feel so staged.

zippitippitoes · 05/11/2008 21:52

just look at any fuck buddy thread and you will see her

zippitippitoes · 05/11/2008 21:53

what do you want to achieve

BigGitPyromaniacDad · 05/11/2008 21:54

I must keep off the music threads and pay more attention!
