Hah hah hah hah hah hah ! I never realised Israeli's could be so funny.

Petrol + Battery + Capacitor. Its a Hybrid hybrid :)

One thing the article only touches on - what happens if electric cars (hybrid or otherwise) take off and we suddenly have multitudes of households charging their cars overnight? the strain on the grid will be huge, in fact I doubt the capacity is currently there (pun not intended).

Countries/States need to start planning for increased grid capacity now, and remember - most of this extra load will be at night, not good for solar. IMHO I don't see any green alternatives for producing the immense amounts of base power needed other than nuclear, but that can be managed safely.

Ummmm lemme see ... bloody amputation of a persons sex is the same as ...

Nope, not seeing it.

Thank you,

in one short paragraph you've conveyed far more information than the article did. I'll wait for this one get released on DVD and rent it.

I wish someone had hammered that into my head in my youth. And the LW seems a very well balanced intelligent young women, I'm sure she'll take it onboard.

Oh I dunno, bloodied, eviscerated vagina's are pretty funny - if that's the way your mind works. Obviously Stephanie's does.

Its just a schlock movie - get over yourselves.

Well duh - 9/11 (or 11/9 in the civilised world) is just another random spectacle.

Self absorbed Americans. Way to many of them. Never even considered that Cloverfield was related to 9/11 until yet again some critic had to make it all about their own obessions all over again.

Both books look deeply interesting. I've long thought they the healthy eating guides were anything but.

And flowers grow in his wake.

Still crap.

... the self-righteousness of those whose bodies and psyches have always been healthy.

No where did I saw ugly or funny.

You used it as a throw away line plus "ain't pretty" = ugly in the context. Your penchant for making off the cuff unsupportable statements and then trying to deny you meant what you said or implied is well known.

Also I doubt women body builders or FTM transsexuals would appreciate you making ignorant bullshit incorrect statements about their lives in an attempt to justify denying women control over their own libido's.

Or would that generate a divide by zero error?

I was taking about female body builders and female born transsexuals, when I mentioned some women that have been taking testosterone injections for years.

Neither Female nor Male bodybuilders take testosterone. Anabolic Steroids are the drug of choice there.

You find FTM transexuals ugly and funny? how enlightened of you.

Regardless the amounts involved are vastly greater than are involved with this patch, comparing them is just uninformed scaremongering.

I'd say that would be upto the woemn in question and her doctor - not anybody here.

Care to expand on that? it sounds like rubbish. Taking large dosages of steroids is not equivalent to a testosterone patch.

For pete's sake will you get over this black or white view of the world. If you took off your ideological blinkers you would have seen I was advocating the appropriate use of meidcations and/or alternatives. Sometimes marriage counselling is the best idea, sometimes the guy needs to learn to be more sensitive, sometimes the women needs to be more sensitive, sometimes a holiday is needed, sometimes a complete change of lifestyle is needed, sometimes medical help is needed. Sometimes its *all* of the above.

I would highly recommend not fucking around with hormones or brain chemistry (unless you actually have a naturally occurring chemical or hormonal imbalance problem).

Did you actually read the article or have all your letters just been knee jerk responses? a hormonal imbalance problem is exactly what this patch is for.

We can bring up lots of situations where a hormonal supplement won't work and/or is inappropriate.

Not the point. The point is there are lots of situations where all the caring and sharing in the world won't do a damn thing but a hormone booster will.

Is there a chemical means of making a woman's clitoris more sensitive? Or am I on the wrong track there? (I really don't know)Is there a chemical means of making a woman's clitoris more sensitive?

Viagra will greatly increase sexual pleasure for women - increased blood flow to the clitoris (which does get erect) etc. Susie Bright did a couple of interesting articles on the subject and I believe there is somer research on it.

• Testosterone and Estrogen are present in roughly equal levels in the Brains of Men and Women. In fact Testosterone converts to Estrogen in the brain.

• Testosterone is necessary for a healthy libido in both women and men.
• The minuscule of Testosterone levels available via this patch will have little to no effect on womens facial hair etc.
• This patch initially appears to be designed for women who have had Ovariectomies, which can happen to women at any age, not just older women in menopause.
• Rupert - not sure if you were joking or not, But testosterone is not transferable via semen :)

I don't get why so many posters appear to have issues with another tool (which is all this is) being made available to women for the purposes of controlling their own lives. Its not being forced on people. I swear, if the pill was only being tested now, you lot would be against it as a tool of the establishment for the sexualisation and control of women.

fetboy has serious disabling issues with his own gender and appears unable to refer to the male sex without sneering. Such self hatred is not a recipe for long term healthy relationships - seek help.
