This Valentine’s Day, couples (or thruples or quads) around the country will be plying themselves with alcohol, which, for better or worse, is an essential ingredient in any number of sexual or romantic encounters.
Alcohol, obviously, lowers inhibitions and makes things that might not be possible sober seem not just doable but actually a good idea. (For instance, putting candlesticks up your butt.) The downsides to drinking, however, are obvious—for instance, an increased likelihood of assault, not to mention a godawful hangover—and yet, humans like to get fucked up before we fuck. It’s a thing.
According to a new study, science has verified something that many stoners have known for ages: It’s not just booze that increases sexual activity and pleasure; weed does it, too.
