A Strange World

WTF?

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico City is giving out free Viagra and other impotence drugs to men 70 and older. Mayor Marcelo Ebrard says the city is implementing the plan because sexuality “has a lot to do with quality of life and our happiness.”

City Health Secretary Armando Ahued says the government will start handing out doses of one or two Viagra, Levitra or Cialis pills on Dec. 1. They will be distributed at three centers that specialize in sexual health for the elderly. The men will receive medical examinations before receiving the pills.

It’s a strange world. No word on any possible distribution of vibrators to women 70 and older.
