Scientists are developing a pill which could boost women's libido and reduce their appetite.

The hormone-releasing pill has so far only been given to female monkeys and shrews who displayed more mating behaviour and ate less.

The team from the Medical Research Council's Human Reproduction Unit in Edinburgh believe a human version could be available within a decade.


While they're at it, why don't they just invent a pill to make us all blonde-haired, blue-eyed, size 6 with 30GG breasts and IQs hovering around the 90 mark. Hell, why not just shoot us all and replace us with life-sized Barbie dolls.

That is incredibly sickening. I can't believe that this could even happen. I am pretty much struck dumb I am so appalled.

The worst thing is, lots of women will probably think it's a *good* thing. Ugh :(

I just told a friend of mine, and her first response was, "When can we get it?" I couldn't believe it. I can't believe that the default position isn't anger.

The girls in my office would probably be the same. It's so depressing. Feminism is a dying art :(

I saw that this morning. It's just wrong on so many levels.

It is indeed. I hope they hit a snag and it never, ever comes to fruition, although the way things are heading this is probably just the tip of the iceburg. :(
