Orgasm Inc | Big Pharma Targets Curing Women
/Liz Canner’s latest documentary “Orgasm, Inc.” examines how drug companies cater to women’s sexual health problems. Big Pharma, Canner posits, might have had a hand in creating the illness in the first place.
Women’s sexual dysfunction is a broadly-defined concept. For that reason, I’ll skip the official statistics and encourage you to take a peak at Canner’s new documentary.
Orgasm Inc: An Early Look
I regard sexual dysfunction as a real problem for women, because loss of libido is a terrible challenge for women, men, marriages and relationships.
The challenge comes with the often psychological nature of flagging libidos. Depression among American women is of epic proportions — based on the prescriptions written each year — and we know that the pills women take are libido killers.
Stress is another real but also ambiguous libido killer. So is sexual guilt.
