Top Ten Aphrodisiacs #10; Rhino Horn

A new series running from 10 through to 1. Published weekly on the archive.

It’s sad how our effort to promote the survival of our species through copious copulation has run other species to the brink of extinction. Rhino horn, prized by some as an alleged aphrodisiac, offers no such sexual power; and its (illegal) use in Chinese medicine for other ailments is questionable. The horns look a little like an erect penis, and in traditional medicine that’s sometimes enough to mean that grinding them up and eating them will make one’s own penis erect. At best, they contain nutrients, such as phosphorus, which gave our nutrient-poor ancestors a little more energy.
