TL;DR - A Further Look at Addyi & Sprout [8/Sep/15]

NOTE: Something else to consider when talking about Addyi as some form of 'date rape' drug. Addyi has to be administered in multiple doses over a number of days to basically saturate the system before the negative interaction with alcohol can be observed (and the supposed 'benefits' the drug is designed for can happen). The idea that you could take a single pill and throw it in someones drink to knock them out is somewhat ridiculous.

A deeper look at some of the other things I found during my research for the "Feminists Don't Understand Medicine" video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oACng87P9I0) and some further thoughts.
