Chloe Wittkop's article on making green choices when picking your aphrodisiacs this Valentine's Day (or any day) really got me thinking about what impact sex (or things we use, related to sex) can have on our environment.

Which, if any, of the foods on her list have been effective for you? Do you or will you follow the advice she's given on making sustainable choices? Or do you even care about such things? less

Yanno, it might be "all in your head" but I kinda think that's the point. Any food, activity, thought, phrase to read or picture to look at is a potential aphrodisiac if it sparks those feelings of passion, don't ya think?

Just because you can't produce scientific proof of say an increase in the chemicals that produce arousal doesn't mean aphrodisiacs don't work. less

Yeah, you're right. Our psychological associations can be really powerful. I can definitely see how strawberries and the juicier fruits and chocolate could work as an aphrodisiac (strawberries are definitely sexy), but as far as oysters or asparagus? Not so sure. That may just be because oysters have always grossed me out, though. Blech. less
