> The "guy end" is uncharted territory for me. I am ecstatically married to a guy who has enough serotonin for at least two or three different area codes in the greater Los Angeles area so this has not been a bridge we've had to cross.

Of course, it's hard to say . . .Heck fire, I'll touch this subject,but I ain't got no "ten foot pole" neither. Shakespeare said 'Comparison is odious' so I dont' want to try to keep up with leeran's hubby's serotonin levels, even euphemistically ... but since I've been on Lexapro my orgasms are better ... for the 1st a couple of days of Lex, everything was different and although it seemed to work (desire:check; erectile function:check) nothing could make orgasm happen... very weird ... I am blessed with an understanding wife/ angel ... however since then, the big 'O' has become a whole 'nother thing, Oh My ... if you know what I mean ... I do not mean to be bragging here ... I would like to hear anyone else who has experienced sexual and /or orgasmic enhancement from Lexapro or any ssri.
As for Viagra, I've read a post in the past on this thread from a guy who said something really funny (i wish i could quote it) where he had a achieved Viagra induced erection, but he still had 1) no desire and 2) no orgasm.... he wrote something like: like a piece of wood ... have to sleep on your side ... but he made it sound hilarious... maybe he is reading this and could post back ... or someone more complusive could hunt the post down...
Thanks leeran for the stimulating post! ( and you too blkvettes)
