“Is marijuana addictive? Yes, in the sense that most of the really pleasant things in life are worth endlessly repeating.”

—Richard Neville

Sex

Get It on Ganja Style

We contemplated leaving it at “Just Do It,” but then what would you talk about at your next dinner party? Researchers are still trying to figure out exactly why cannabis makes sex better (and more frequent), but they have some ideas and think it comes down to these three things: (1) reduced anxiety and inhibitions, (2) enhanced pleasure, and (3) heightened sensation.

Alcohol, of course, can also loosen up the mind and the body, but unlike cannabis, it’s a depressant, and too much can do a number on your state of being the next day (not to mention make it more difficult to…ahem…perform). To put it in layman’s terms, the words “I had the best drunk sex last night” have never been spoken. Those of us who have combined the joy of sex with the joy of cannabis can promise you the reviews are five star, but don’t take our word for it. Listen to the experts about how to maximize your flower powered make-out sessions.

FIELD NOTES

Is Cannabis Viagra for Women? Suzanne Mulvehill, a doctoral student at the International Institute of Clinical Sexology, was so affected by the intersection of cannabis and sex that it changed her life. “I saw four sex therapists over three decades to resolve my difficulty experiencing orgasm, and it was finally with the help of cannabis that I found relief,” Mulvehill said. “I sold my business and launched the Orgasm Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to ending female orgasmic disorder, one that affects up to 46 percent of women worldwide.”

Although to date, most of the reports on the female orgasm/cannabis connection are anecdotal, Mulvehill said the clinical studies are catching up. We know that women are more affected by cannabis partly because of hormones. More estrogen means more sensitivity, both to touch and cannabis’s effects, making women’s high experience more relaxing and euphoric than men’s. And for women who feel cultural repression or sexual inhibitions, cannabis can affect their libido even more than men. In a study of 373 women, Dr. Becky Lynn found that 34 percent were using cannabis for sex and that these women were twice as likely to orgasm as nonusers. Mulvehill also said that low libido is the number one sexual complaint among women and that cannabis can be a game changer. “As my own work and that of others continues,” she said, “there’s a wide-open world ahead in which cannabis can serve as a powerful, natural sexual healer.”
