It's the Viagra Stupid

I was unhappy to learn yesterday in the New York TImes how statistically unhappy I am. New research says women are now less happy than men. DUH!!! Of course they are. Let's think about it a bit differently than the research . It's not as they state, that women don't have enough time to dust and thus their dusty houses make them sad , it's really why men are now so DAMN happy. Men have little blue happy pills, and I'm not talking about Valium or Prozac. They have Viagra. No more roadblocks in their sex lives; for God's sake they can probably now have sex on their death bed. There may not be 28 virgins waiting for them in "heaven" but it will be one hell of a ride.

And what do I have? Hormone replacement therapy, which can give me Cancer or heart disease? Oh joy! How many men really end up in the emergency room with an erection that lasts 4 hours or more?!?!?!? I have male friends hoarding the pills, collecting prescriptions from multiple doctors. Are they ever happy! I'm reading the side of a "Replens" box hoping it takes the sandpaper effect out of my sex life. Am I smiling yet?

Although I do know what would put a smile on my face; a statistic changing event . It's not the day there's a technological break through in dusting. It's the day I read they've discovered in a well documented clinical trial that Viagra is injurious to your health. Raise your hand if you're happy!
