In the case of reproduction, then it *might* be needed. That's why there is an appeal process with insurance companies. However, ED incidences grow
with age.
Recreational use of Viagra is growing quite significantly according to the below article.
"New research indicates that the use of Viagra skyrocketed 312% among men aged 18-45 between 1998 and 2002. There's also been a twofold increase -- 216% -- among men between ages 45 and 55, says Tom Delate, PhD, whose research analyzed data on medical insurance claims by some 5 million patients across the country.

Does this suggest a growing trend in using the drug for recreational rather than medical purposes -- such as for a sex enhancer?
"That would be my guess," Delate tells WebMD.
"What we found was that problems typically seem to start in a man's 40s and affected only about 40% of the men in these age groups."
Young Men Lead Surge in Viagra Use
The majority of people using Viagra aren't using it as a reproductive necessity, but for pleasure enhancement. I should not have to pay for more people to get laid - the wages that politicians use to pay for prostitutes should be enough.
