ratatosk has nifty pictures of a walkingstick and a praying mantid (if you don't want to see pictures of bugs, don't click!)

Via sinboy, The pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has patented drugs to make it harder for women to climax during sex. The patent says: "Whilst anorgasmia and difficulties with orgasm are well-represented in the female sexual dysfunction literature, rapid orgasm - a female problem sharing components with premature ejaculation in men - is notable by its absence." [...] The Sexual Dysfunction Association said it had never heard of premature female orgasm

If the problem doesn't exist, how does a patent for a drug to treat it make _ANY_ sense? *tries valiently not to think of ways in which it could be abused*

Note that there's a patent, but no clinical trials and no plans for any. I suspect they're just trying to corner a market that isn't there, in case someday it is.
