Law Makers in the Bedroom
Andrew Rynne
I am a retired medical practitioner and the Author of two published books, with a third on its way.. - The Reverend Psychopath, The Foxhunter. -- a tragedy of medical negligence and an autobiography.
A Kentucky Democrat, Mary Lou Marzian, is proposing legislation where by a man seeking Viagra or any other erectile dysfunction medication would have to produce a note from his wife giving her permission for him to do so. Its all about "Family Values" apparently, whatever that's supposed to mean.
Is this lady out of her mind? This reminds me of a situation that we had here in Ireland in the and 1980's whereby a man had to go to a doctor in order to get a prescription for condoms. That's right , a prescription if you please. And the doctor then had to be satisfied that the man was only going to use the condoms with his wife! You can guess how long that piece of legislation lasted.
But that was then, when the Irish Taliban were in charge. But now, thirty years later in Kentucky of all places, history is about to repeat itself and the law makers are going into people's bedrooms to make sure all is in order and that Family Values are being respected.
Do you think it is right that a man has to get his wife's permission to take Viagra? Let us have your views please.

9 年I think it's ridiculous. This is not going to solve anything. In fact most likely make things worse. The best way to get somebody to do something is to tell them not to. I can only guess this law was written by a scorned woman. This is not going to stop men from straying. If you want to keep your man then you need to make sure you please your man. And visa versa. Women are just as guilty as men are, it's just less talked about. The problem is people expect their partners to be faithful but do not put enough effort in to make sure they are being satisfied to the point where they don't find the need to be unfaithful. Sex is a necessity not a luxury! Once a week is just not going to cut it. If you not enjoying it then you doing it wrong! Get some help and fix your love life.
