IT IS now less embarrassing to tell people you take Viagra than to say you voted for Brexit, according to a new study.
Researchers at the Institute for Studies found that men saying they voted for Brexit and believe it’s going well created more social awkwardness than those confessing they take blue pills to ‘help with the tired little soldier’.
Professor Henry Brubaker said: “First, the men chatted about the weather and the football and of course, real ale.
“And then, one of them dropped in that he had been taking Viagra for a long time now which lead to a short awkward silence followed by some nervous laughter.
“Then, minutes later, the same man also announced that he had voted to leave the EU and felt it was all a huge success.
“This lead to a much more prolonged period of awkward silence and absolutely no laughter. Shortly after the host said ‘I’ll get everyone’s coats’.”
Leave voter and erectile problem sufferer Martin Bishop added: “Now I get ‘the soldier ready for parade’ by watching political situations descend into a shambolic mess, so I don’t even need the little blue guys any more.”
