The Broken Man

A man's worth is determined in society by his size, strength, and control. Typically, men with an erectile dysfunction feel insecure because they lack these attributes. The media tells these men that their inability to perform sexually makes them weak and powerless, and essentially less of a man. The men are portrayed as "broken," as if they are some kind of inanimate object in need of a quick repair or other wise will be useless and disposed of. Society tells these men that the solution to all their problems (including regaining their claim to manhood) can be found in a tiny blue pill, Viagra. Despite all the positive media coverage, Viagra is an imperfect solution and poses many risks. These risks lead the consumer to ask the inevitable question, "Is it really worth it?"
