WOMEN ARE
LOSING IT…
THEIR DESIRE
THAT IS.
Together with Funny or Die, we explored this very serious subject
(with a little dose of humor.)

When it comes to sex today, women are often only asked three questions:
ONE
Are you sexually active?
TWO
Do you want birth control?
THREE
Do you want to be tested for STDs?
But, what if we were asked one more?
We could change the conversation around sex for women for good.
It’s time to address women’s sexual health beyond reproduction alone.
The Story of HSDD
Millions of women suffer in silence, ashamed to discuss their sexual pleasure (or lack thereof). Society has reinforced these ideals, making them taboo, or worse, trivial. When something troubles men in the bedroom, we address it. When something troubles women, it becomes a punchline. None of us are laughing.
Fact #1
Low sexual desire has been studied for decades3 and is the most common form of female dysfunction.1
Fact #2
Sexual response is complex for both men and women.4
Fact #3
Studies estimate that low sexual desire affects millions of women in North America, and that approximately 1 in 10 women are distressed by it.2
Fact #4
Lack of sexual desire can have a biological basis. Brain scan studies suggest that your brain can affect desire.5,6
It’s time to change the conversation.
