Eat 'Sexy' Swine, Says Argentina's President

Saturday, January 30 02:56 pm

The president of Argentina has announced that pork is a more effective sexual stimulant than Viagra, as she tries to boost the country's pig industry.

Cristina Fernandez claimed she and her husband had just spent a fulfilling weekend of marital bliss after tucking into some barbecued chops.

"Eating pork improves your sex life. I'd say it's a lot nicer to eat a bit of grilled pork than take Viagra," she said in a speech to the leaders of Argentina's pig farming industry.

"And let me tell you, I am a big fan of pork meat, and I am not just saying that to look good here."

Ms Fernandez's half-joking comments were met with applause from the country's pork industry leaders.

The light-hearted comments introduced Fernandez's proposed subsidies for Argentina's pig business.

The president did, however, voice concern as to how her husband, former Argentinian president Nestor Kirchner, would react to her public revelation.

"I just realised what I said - Kirchner will kill me," she said.

The comment has been played repeatedly on television and radio stations, and has sparked fierce debate on whether Argentines, some of the world's most avid beef consumers, should add more pork to their diet.

Argentinians consume a little more than their body weight in beef every year and have little interest in replacing their beefy meals with chicken, pork or other meats.

The head of the association of pork producers, Juan Luis Uccelli, has supported Ms Fernandez's speech, saying that Denmark and Japan have a much more "harmonious" sexual life than Argentinians because they eat a lot of pig meat.

"In Osaka, Japan, there is a village in which the people who reached 105 years old and ate a lot of pork had a lot of sexual activity," he told a radio station.

Others were sceptical.

A specialist in sexual dysfunction, has told the Argentinian newspaper La Nacion that there was no study showing that pork meat significantly improves sexual activity.
