For those who don't know this. wee wees are under tension when we are not hard. The tension relaxes and the blood flows in. When something happens and the blood can't flow out and we are not "in the mood". That can be very very painful. And they have to cut ya a drain it.

Brazilian and US scientists are looking into using spider venom as a possible treatment for male impotence.

Their investigation follows reports that men bitten by the Phoneutria nigriventer experienced priapism - long and painful erections.

A two-year study has found that the venom contains a toxin, called Tx2-6, that causes erections.

Further tests are being carried out in the US before the substance can be approved for human use.

The results, from the Medical College of Georgia, are expected in a month's time.

The bite of Phoneutria nigriventer, known as the Brazilian wandering spider, is potent and can be deadly in some cases.

The Brazilian and US researchers interviewed men who claimed their sex lives had improved after a spider attack.

I don't know what to say about this that anyone reading it hasn't already thought.
