a new pill says it will make oral sex taste betterOral sex. In the '90s, we pondered the question, is it really even sex? Today, we know the answer: Does it really even matter? It feels good. And according to a recent survey, the majority of sexually active men and women feel that giving and receiving oral sex is important in a relationship (to which we say: duh).

The same survey also "discovered" that the way you or your partner "tastes" can be a real obstacle to whether you'll get (or give) some south-of-the-border action. Which reminds us of that "Sex and the City" episode where Samantha is bedding a dude whose spunk is funky. She tries to remedy the situation by getting him to imbibe wheat grass juice, a supposed cure, but alas, in true Samantha fashion, she calls it quits and moves on to her next victim before she can test the conclusion of her little experiment.

Too bad there wasn't a pill you could pop that would improve the taste of sexual secretions. Oh, wait! There is! One created by the same company that released the above survey results, natch. Lifestyle Nutrition recently announced the sale of BOP supplements, easy-to-swallow (pun intended) pills formulated with ingredients such as banana, pineapple, vanilla, cinnamon and ginger, which are "delivered through a unique lipid matrix made from flaxseed oil, safflower seed oil and sesame seed oil." Apparently the foods we consume affect the way our bodily secretions taste, and this pill, when taken two hours before sexual intimacy, has been proven to affect the taste of secretions positively. (Where in the world do they find the people to participate in these studies?)

So, what do you think: Would a pill that improves the taste make you more likely to go downtown?
