Default Damn that little blue pill!

A new study has been published linking the onset of rosacea (in men, obviously) to PDE-5 inhibitors like Viagra.

Yes, a good time is generally had by all!

Unfortunately, this f**king pill (pun intended!) may well "cause" rosacea in some men who might not otherwise be afflicted. On the bright side, the men in this study who stopped using their love drugs also saw their rosacea remit.

Looks like my days of aerobic, marathon, jungle sex are officially numbered....

Allibear,

The problem is definitely not the woman! My wife is exceedingly hot!

However, I have been taking zinc supplements lately for my skin and ... well, let's just say neither one of us misses that little blue pill anymore!
