...A general term for drugs used to increase one's own or a partner's sexual desire or sexual pleasure, also known as an aphrodisiac. Drugs that enlarge the male genitals, which are linked to the desire for a long penis, and drugs that reduce the female genitals are also counted among aphrodisiacs because they are believed to further enhance sexual sensation. The Latin word aphrodisiacum (plural aphrodisiaca) is a modern academic coinage derived from Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of beauty and sensuality. *Some of the terminology explanations that mention "Aphrodisiacum" are listed below.
