Many times, alcohol can give people the urge to take off their clothes. Most people believe that after a few drinks, lovemaking becomes more exciting. But is it true that alcohol can make sex uncomfortable? How does alcohol affect sex? Is there a scientific basis for “drunken sex”? The brain is the largest sexual organ in the body, and any substance that affects the mind can have a significant impact on sex. The effect of alcohol is to turn off the “restraint” function in the brain, allowing people to let down their guard and become more impulsive and bold. For example, the antioxidants in wine can help increase blood flow to the genitals, and consuming small doses of alcohol can make a person feel overwhelmed. In addition, alcohol can help dilate blood vessels, and “the clitoris, labia and vagina can become engorged.” Many women say they become more likely to “lose it” after drinking, but the pleasure ends quickly and it’s difficult to reach orgasm. But alcohol is not an aphrodisiac. Because alcohol has the effect of reducing depression and increasing arousal, some people mistakenly believe that alcohol has the same effect as an aphrodisiac. But in fact, alcohol does not make people become more desirable, because those sexual fantasies and desires already exist in the mind, after drinking, the brain turns off the inner justice villain to warn people that “this is not good” function, so that people social level of moral sense weak, acting more in line with the biological level of desire. Alcohol sex, in fact, is not so “dry fire” 1, alcohol makes it more difficult to control their own bodies Normally, when the genitals receive the stimulation of pleasure, the brain will be these feelings into excitement, but with the intake of alcohol, these feelings become dull, so the genitals may become less sensitive. This is because alcohol inhibits the central nervous system and weakens the connection between the brain and the sex organs. For men, getting an erection when drunk is actually a very difficult task, which is very common in life, usually because the stimulation to the penis is not effectively transmitted to the brain, making it difficult to get or maintain an erection, and even if it does, the penis is quite weak, but for some people, they can still make love even if they can’t get as strong an erection as usual after drinking. For women, alcohol can also make the vagina dry, which is caused by alcohol dehydration. For women who are nearing or already in menopause and already have vaginal dryness due to hormonal changes, alcohol will only make the problem worse. Alcohol can completely delay ejaculation or simply make people not ejaculate, because the senses become dull and the “penis” can’t reach its full potential; clitoral and vaginal orgasms are also difficult to obtain, even though some women may start to feel hot after a glass of wine, because of individual differences, but to make her orgasm It is still quite difficult to get her to come. What are the dangers of having sex after drinking? 1, when drunk, more likely to be injured during sex After a drunken night, when you wake up and find yourself with a lot of bruises, you can not recall what really happened last night, this thing is a bit bad. There are these common injuries from drunken sex: pain from a lack of vaginal lubrication, bruises from accidentally hitting a nightstand, or a lot of bite marks on your body …… So, don’t get too carried away at the party, if you want to have sex after drinking, proper lubrication is very important, if you don’t know when the other party needs lube, it’s best to slow down the action to avoid hurting him/her. 2, alcohol can blur judgment and can easily lead to risky sex Alcohol can easily make people lose their sanity, and in this case, people may forget to take out a condom. Or even more terrible: the other party is obviously already struggling and screaming no, but you think: “Ha! The mouth is not the heart”, then it is estimated to meet you is to squat in jail. Is lovemaking before a little wine can not drink? Having said that, the right amount of alcohol will make people feel good about sex, which is important for couples to maintain a good relationship. Some people feel anxious in their normal lives because of various pressures, or they are not very confident in front of their sexual partners, causing sexual disharmony due to psychological problems. In this case, a little wine in moderation, sex is very helpful. But it is important to note that you can not always rely on alcohol to solve problems, you should look for the root cause of anxiety when you are sober, you can talk to your friends and family, or get help from your doctor or therapist. Long-term alcohol abuse has a significant impact on sex life Alcohol can have long-term effects on the body in addition to causing the short-term effects mentioned above. For example, long-term drinking is known to cause damage to the liver and cardiovascular system. If you want to perform vividly in bed, your genitals need a good blood supply, and if your heart is not functioning well, your sex life will be greatly diminished.
