aphrodisiac's

aphrodisiacs

Are aphrodisiac's necessary and do they work?

Particularly in the BDSM world?

 

[Cattypuss]

Ha ha yes obviously they're absolutely necessary: nobody EVER has sex without them.

 

[Corylea]

Aphrodisiacs are a placebo, so they're like any other placebo: they work if you think they do.

So that's all I need to know? lol

Maybe a few more opinions before we close down the thread.

What do you think?

I agree with the above posters. There has been absolutely no scientific proof that so-called 'aphrodisiacs' actually work consistently and safely on all subjects using them. They are certainly NOT necessary because were they, the human race would have died out a few tens of thousands of years ago. What else do you need to know, really?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm wondering what the fuck the aphrodiasic has to merit a possessive apostrophe? An aphrodiasic's what, mackman, AN APHRODIASIC'S WHAT?!

My apologies for the grammatical error.

Maybe some other peoples experiences with them.
Maybe a herbalist can comment on the make up of some homeopathic compounds that help the libido or that help with physical stamina.

Those are just a couple of things I can think of.

I've always been skeptical of them (meaning I assume they don't work) and I don't see why they'd be needed. Even if they did work, a chemical compound is no substitute for your sexual skills.

For me, the only aphrodisiac needed is pain.

Pain is a very strong aphrodisiac.

Aside from this, I really don't see the relevance to BDSM at all.

A belt is used to hold up a pair of pants.

How is it relevant to BDSM?
I guess my eyes see different things.

Don't worry too much about it, mack. MS is just auditioning for the BDSM Forum Grammar Nazis.

No...you didn't buy the Horny Goat Weed did you?

Keep it away from the goat!

*pounces and snuggles* I was wondering where you'd been!

I agree power is a strong aphrodisiac.

Power may not BE the aphrodisiac for everyone.

2 or 3 people have decided that the question has been answered to their liking so we should end the thread.

I don't believe that is a reason to end this thread, or any thread for that matter.

When I mentioned aphrodisiacs I wanted to know about all types of aphrodisiacs. The chemical, herbal and psychological.

hey nh! i've been peeping in here and there, just waiting for a juicy topic to be posted.

I don't know about you but my belt isn't needed to hold up my pants. It's used for, ahem, other purposes.

Real?

The above posters are correct that there is no medical/scientific evidence that aphrodisiacs are real. Some "aphrodisiacs" are high in certain minerals and vitamins that can promote energy - B vitamins, magnesium, etc. This is the only hypothesis that I have ever read that gives a reason for why various foods have a reputation of being an aphrodisiac, and it's basic biochemistry and nutrition - nothing too exciting.

Of course it will! As long as you believe in it.
