A "stay faithful pill", hmm, OK so if i take this pill supposedly I will not find another sexually attractive? Oh good because sex hides the real person inside. With out the worry of sexual attraction I can judge a person by the way they treat me as a person. If I take this stay faithful pill I can leave home and leave the possessive person that controls my every move behind too, and maybe find someone that is nice to me for me not my body.

No matter how much positive you put in this debate, it seems to me that we have grown way to dependent on pills to cure our own misdeeds. Why did we want to "grow up"?

I grew up so I could make choices of my own, pay consequences that were suppose to be more fair than the month long restrictions my father and mother used as child torture.

Seems to me that if you feel your significant other requires a "stay faithful pill" you might want to reevaluate the relationship and look for a doctor that will prescribe you some antidepressants and anti anxiety pills, maybe your own actions are sending your significant other looking elsewhere.

...

So now i am taking this stay faithful pill, i have found a "better man" because of not being blinded by sex, eventually that pill will go to the way side for what ever reason and once again sex becomes an image in judging someone. A temporary fix that may help someone with dysfunctional sexual issues, but this pill would be misused and mishandled in socialized America today.

Now I want to point out maybe we would not even need to consider this little pill if another little pill had not been released into the world. Seems erectile dysfunction drugs are on the opposite pole of this stay faithful pill. Erectile dysfunction drugs may lead to the need for stay faithful drugs. When the kidneys and liver begin having issues with metabolizing these drugs we can put a person on drugs to help them function right again.

Who wins here other than the pharmaceutical company, you still can not trust your significant other as to whether they took the pill and if it is working, so another "can" of distrust is added to the relationship, another reason to doubt and assume. Add the depression the body goes through when it is manipulated with drugs and the burden get larger, throw in the cost of medications to keep up with this scenario and the doctor visits to get those medications, and you just wrote the prescription for divorce.

So I do not believe we should even consider this pill, but since the thought is out there maybe we better prepare for it to hit the market instead,
