‘A very paternalistic attitude’: why is female desire still not taken seriously?

In documentary The Pink Pill, the fight to provide access to the so-called ‘female Viagra’ exposes an industry that still discounts the needs of women

The Guardian

"The bias showing through the FDA approval process boiled down to “well, we just don’t know if [Addyi] is necessary’”.

“But that’s not a question that has ever come up when it comes to male sexual dysfunction.
It is absolutely imperative that if you are a man with a penis, you should be able to do whatever you want with it.
And those were not the same considerations for women.”
