The article notes concern that Viagra may affect men's sperm in such a way that it makes it harder for them to fertilise an egg. Of course, I would have thought most men who need it are of an age where they don't want kids, and those men who use it recreationally are probably not having sex for procreative purposes anyway.
Speaking of it recreational use, this I find surprising:
...Viagra has become a widely used recreational drug. It is mixed with cocaine, for example, and is sold in clubs.I see from a quick Google that this has been going on for years, at least in Britain and Scotland. (I assume the same holds for Australia.)
This is debauchery of a very special kind: not just simply giving in to an appetite for pleasure, but deliberately seeking to increase the appetite itself. Screwtape would be delighted with modern pharmacology.
