I haven't 'checked' it for myself yet, but a former girlfriend of mine was on quite a high dosage of Effexor and was, um, everything BUT hindered in her libido (might actually have been the opposite).
Edronax (reboxetine) led to funny effects, though; and I'm rather sure that some males might have problems with them. The first weeks, it can render you utterly impotent (I thought that was a rather funny experience; others may, like I said, not be as thrilled), and another funny effect is that it affects your actual orgasm - for me, it was that I ejaculated some 5 to 10 seconds PRIOR to orgasm, in the beginning, that was also quite painful (some kind of cramping occurred)!
It normalized rather quickly, and even after doubling the dosage, apart from a slight sting and a 1 to 3 second 'time offset' that sometimes occurred, everything went back to normal with reboxetine.
