The overblown male erection?

Salon’s review of a new book, Angus McLaren’s “Impotence: A Cultural History.”

McLaren points out how the definition of “impotence” has changed over centuries and millennia, as well as differing between cultures. He says that Viagra, by increasing anxiety and becoming the male equivalent of a boob job, may just make things worse. And, he says that sexuality for men hasn’t always been so narrowly defined by an erect male penis.
