SFGate: Culture Blog!: "Sniff The Greatest Sex Drug... Ever

Now in Phase 3 clinical trials, which is the phase just before final FDA approval and the phase just before it starts appearing on a million semi-legal medical websites and just before it becomes THE must-have club drug of your life and before it shows up in every woman's purse and every man's coat pocket, is a new and potentially world-altering aphrodesiac.
One sniff, and this could be you

One sniff, and this could be you. Or, you know, your wife

It is the nasal spray to end all nasal sprays, a new and apparently hugely effective brain-stroking libido-licking sex-drive-boosting drug called PT-141 which, if approved and if even half as effective as some of the amazing human trials indicate, will revolutionize sex in a way Viagra could only wet dream and which Ecstasy can only knowingly wink at and which cocaine and cocktails and overpriced sports cars will only deeply envy forevermore.
Farewell?

Still good, but you can't sniff it

It works for both men and women. It is unaffected by food or alcohol. It is non-addictive, easy to use, has no serious physical side effects. It works by opening/stimulating/grinding against the same channels in the brain (as opposed to the bloodstream, like Viagra) that fire up when you get turned on. It is not Ecstasy, but it certainly could supplant it as the club drug of the new millennium. And it will be here in about three years.

Basically, it makes you horny. Really horny. Take-your- clothes-off-right-now-and-do-me horny. It is direct. Straight to the brain. Bypasses the mating ritual and bypasses those numbing $100 dinners and bypasses the all your annoying complex psychoemotional issues and all the lessons you might need to learn about your sexuality and zips right by the awkwardness of taking your pants off in front of someone new for the first time and makes you wanna get down to it like, right now. Apparently.

Very good -- if lengthy and a bit rambly -- piece in New York magazine about the joys and evils to, uh, come, as a result of PT-141's imminent legalization. It is, after all, the cheap, easy-to-use, hassle-free sex drug everyone's been waiting for. It is nirvana, the magic bullet, the simplest route to quickie sex you've ever known. It could be the greatest thing to happen to sex in 50 years. And also, of course, the worst.

Makes you want to try it, no?"
