Pleasure is enemy of reason, as for example while having orgasm one cannot think about anything else. Do you agree with this statement by best philosopher Aristotle?

How can you disagree with it?
False equivalence fallacy

What? Sure you can. I've done it.
Aristotle in his metaphysics explain how pleasure is essential to the philosophy, only when the men have good food, comfort and pleasure he can start to think in non human or useful things. You cannot think in metaphysics right after orgasm, but you cannot even conceive philosophy if you don't have a source o pleasure, your end will be the pleasure.

But anon being virtuous gives me pleasure, and having vice inevitably robs me of pleasure.
Plus like other anon said you've misinterpreted him. Re-read nichomachian ethics, he specifically arrives at rational activity and cultivation of public virtue as the most reliable means of obtaining happiness.
To use Plato for a bit, you're equivocating pleasure from apatite with something like pleasure from reason.
reason is downstream from pleasure and pain lmao

Brazilian monkey, you are high quality monkey #1 better than Argentina because you interpreted Aristotle more successfully than OP. I hope yerba mate and non-corrupt government come to you.
