 <description>If there is incresed marriage breakdown after the introduction of the little blue pill I think it is a symptom that the man is looking for an easy fix for the issues in his life. If he senses he has peaked in his career and is starting too look as yesterday&#039;s man, if he looks in the mirror and sees his father and looks at his wife and sees his mother in law rather than doing the work to revitalize his career by taking new courses or rejuvenating his relationship by listening the issues his wife faces with menopause and empty nest or helping his children get their careers on the road or travelling it is much easier to take a pill, a car and a younger girlfriend. 

But if the pill weren&#039;t available would he be forced to look around and try to deepen the relationships he has?  Maybe in some cases....................</description>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;The magic little pill may spell trouble. According to a June 2008 report, a Harvard Medical School study said Viagra may add to marital stress. A couple used to dutifully kiss and go to sleep. Now he&#039;s popping pills, looking to reclaim his sexuality. Some wives may say Hallelujah, others may feel ambushed into re-creating his sexual fantasies. And all that while the laundry needs to be done. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then there&#039;s another possibility. The study doesn&#039;t say it, but it&#039;s also possible he&#039;s met someone new, someone young and frisky. That&#039;s why he&#039;s taking Viagra.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read more &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.health.harvard.edu/newsweek/Excerpted_from_Sexuality_at_Midlife_and_Beyond.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.
