TERRORIST ANXIETY SAPPING AMERICANS’ LIBIDOS



NEW HAVEN, Conn. (Wireless Flash) – Osama bin Laden is crawling into American bedrooms and putting a damper on sex. According to the director of a Yale University sex counseling program, anxiety over the war is making many people lose their desire for sex. Dr. Philip Sarrel says the number of new patients coming into his clinic has tripled since September 11 and the problem is affecting both gay and straight people. He says anxiety over the terrorists can interfere with the body’s ability to produce sex-driving hormones, but many people may not realize they’re pooping out in the sack because of terrorist fears. If you suspect the war is affecting your libido, Dr. Sarrel recommends visiting a psychiatrist who can analyze the problem and prescribe medications or therapy.
