The Female Viagra Myth

This week on WINGS:

Feminists recruited by a pharmaceutical company may have gained approval for Flibanserin, a drug touted as “female Viagra,” but feminist opponents say it doesn’t work and is a wrong approach to sexual problems.

Featured speakers/guests:

Dr. Leonore Tiefer, sex therapist, associate professor of psychiatry at two medical schools, and a feminist activist and co-founder the The New View campaign.
