Document Summary
Harder for women to tell because they don"t have the obvious erection from external genitalia. How did it come to be seen as a disease- they don"t want to answer, which is weird because they"re developing the drug; the market went wild and the drugs success sort of just happened. If they can transform sexual difficulties into a disease, then it becomes their job to "cure" it. Lots of money to be made telling healthy people they"re sick. Once the fda recognizes female sexual disorders, became a gold rush. Potential market = 1/3 of the pupation over 25. Woman says she wants to be "healthy and normal" "not only am i not normal, i am diseased" when growing up, giving into the flesh was considered wrong. 43% idea from a survey from the 90s; even the creator of the survey says that the women are normal and that they are reacting perfectly normally to the human organism.
