Boffins may have spared your sex flop blushes

Scientists have been, erm, hard at work...

Science may have solved one of the greatest afflictions of mankind – the floppy c*ck.

Millions of men will have been there – 2am, after a belly full of ale, gorgeous girl waiting in bed – when the dreaded brewer’s droop strikes.

Hunched over in the bathroom, screaming “Why? Why!” at your lifeless penis…JOE knows your pain.

Well, there might be light at the end of the tunnel. Literally.

Brainbox scientists believe they may have the key to this age old vanquisher of sexual conquests.

They think they have come up with a way of stimulating an erection using special blue light.

This beautiful ray gun of hope is even named after the Greek love god Eros (its less catchy name is the ‘erectile optogenetic stimulator’).

So far it has only been tried on rats, but feel free to send a tester out to JOE guys. The things we do for science.
