The Shoe's on the Other Foot

Turner's law requires men to get a signed note from their spouse or significant other and visit a sex therapist in order to be prescribed Viagra, Cialis or any other "double tub" medicine. I bet the men in this country would say, "But, that's so demeaning."

Well, you think THAT'S demeaning, just take a gander at the following scenario.

Maybe our congress could form an all female panel to discuss the virtue of such a law. It would be televised, of course. The panelists must show some distinguished graying or noticeably dyed hair. They should probably sport a midriff bulge, wide hips and wear designer reading specs as well.

These women must appear to know everything about male medical problems. They also need to speak in droning and condescending tones to prove their expertise and demonstrate their opinions on such matters.

Finally, after the televised hearing, the nation might tune in to MSNBC and hear a female flannel-mouthed talk show personality speak about how she feels men who use erection meds are sad old sex addicts. She might even scream into the mike that these men are most likely lecherous Lotharios in her estimation, but she wouldn't mind seeing a video of their performance.

Hey, guys...the shoe sort of pinches on the other foot, now, doesn't it?
