Am I Healthy Enough for Sexual Activity?


"So, doctor, tell me; am I healthy enough for sexual acitivity?"

Well, come the hell on. The commercials for these hardeners ask you to ask.

"Sorry, Mr. Sweeney, is that a question or are you hoping to start a rumor?"

Cialis, Viagra, whatever. Erectile Dysfuntion is huge. Or at least a big problem. Shit, it's kind of hard to come at this topic without making an annoying pun - and I hate puns.

How about, "If you have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, contact your physician immediately."

Screw that. I'm contacting the Guinness people right away. Even at 17, I never had one that lasted 4 hours.

Every stiffy-med commercial seems to have a middle-aged guy fly fishing at some point during it, if only for a half second. Is that a side effect? Fly fishing is now a medical condition. Maybe it's added value - you can keep your wife happy AND you'll develop an overwhelming urge to fly fish. Good deal.

You know what I think? Of course not. But now I have a blog, so you will know what I think.

By the time a guy gets to, let's say, 50 years of age, he shouldn't be siring offspring. Why? Because nature knows better. Nature, God, the Deity, The Grand Architect, always knows better. And it knows that the human animal reaches an age where it cannot count on having enough time left in its life to properly fledge a child.

So nature intervenes. Nature brings erectile dysfunction to your door. We should accept it, as woman do it's female counterpart. Go fly fishing...or ask your doctor for samples to see if it's right for you.
