 
Arun! What the hell?
I need a woman with experience.
I have a problem.
 
Yeah! Your cologne!
What?
What’s wrong with my cologne?
 
It smells like pesticide!
- It does?
- Really fancy pesticide.
- Oh!
- But still pesticide.
Can I go back
to the party now?
 
No! Look, listen...
 
I met a girl here tonight.
 
And she wants to have sex!
- With me?
- No, with me!
 
Oh!
Okay, well...
Then what’s the problem?
 
I’m terrified!
 
What if I’m bad at it?
Arun, don’t be silly...
This is your first time!
Of course you’re going
to be bad at it!
- That’s not helping.
- It will!
If you just embrace it
and try to enjoy yourself.
 
Oh, wait! Or... okay.
What if I just took something
to calm my nerves?
Maybe a drink?
Maybe some weed?
 
No, bad idea, dude.
Mixing drugs and alcohol
is always risky...
But if you add sex in the mix,
it can be downright dangerous.
 
How?
Two words for you:
whisky dick.
 
Whisky what?
Look, alcohol
makes it harder
for a guy to get
or maintain an erection.
Okay, yeah.
That is pretty scary.
Plus mixing drugs and alcohol
can lead to bad decisions,
which could lead to an unwanted
pregnancy or STBBIs. Come on!
Look, how bad can
one drunken decision be?
 
Guys, Brandon just barfed...
 
Everybody... hey!
You guys want
some ice cream?
 
Dude, that’s mayonnaise.
 
Oh!
No wonder the first jar
tasted so weird.
 
Uh... are you bleeding?
Yeah! I got my first
tattoo tonight!
 
Did it myself!
 
It’s my nickname!
 
I need a sprinkle.
 
Who’s got some sprinkles!
I’m gonna really enjoy
having bad sex tonight.
- You’re gonna love it!
- Yeah.
We sometimes hear
that alcohol or drugs
reduce inhibitions and
increase sexual pleasure.
While some think
it’s a way to reduce stress
 
and let go more easily,
these substances can have
unpredictable effects. 
Depending on the substance,
the amount taken and the context, 
they can make you
feel sluggish,
 
depressed,
 
agitated,
 
falsely invincible,
 
or numb your sensations.
It can also be harder
to feel sexual arousal
 
or have an orgasm.
 
For example,
it may cause a lack of
natural lubrication in the vagina,
or it may make it difficult
to have or maintain an erection.
In the long run, regular use
of alcohol or drugs
can even result in the inability
to feel pleasure
when not using
the substances.
When under the influence
of alcohol or drugs,
desire to have sexual interactions
can sometimes increase.
Since the perception of risk
is also affected,
the intention to protect
yourself could decrease,
and there is a greater danger
of exceeding your limits
 
or those of your partner.
Legally, consent given is not valid
if that person is incapable,
which can happen
when intoxicated.
Even if your partner
says yes,
It is your role to make sure
they are capable of consent.
Otherwise, the sexual contact
may be considered sexual assault.
If you use alcohol or drugs
to overcome shyness,
there are other ways
to go about it.
Going with a friend to meet
the person you’re attracted to
may help you feel
more comfortable.
Similarly, finding
common interests
and using them
to start a conversation
allows you to talk
more naturally.
Also, focusing on the other person
by asking questions
 
is a win-win approach,
because it reduces discomfort,
while showing interest.
In short, there are other ways
than alcohol and drugs
to feel comfortable
when trying to meet someone
or when engaging
in sexual activity.
If I can say, speaking
from experience,
 
being too drunk...
Not a good combination
with sex.
I have had a bad sexual
experience with alcohol.
I think the combination
of sex and alcohol...
might not be
the greatest of ideas.
 
I wouldn’t say it’s bad,
but sometimes you’re too drunk
and you can’t get hard,
or you’re too drunk or too high
and you fall asleep.
Because I was too drunk,
I couldn’t get hard at all.
While it can be a good time,
it can also...
lead to a pretty
bad time in the morning,
if people weren’t necessarily
totally aware.
My senses weren’t
collaborating with my body.
It wasn’t pleasurable
for her nor to me.
It was an awkward conversation
to have in the morning.
Depending on what you’re like
when you’re on alcohol,
and how much alcohol
you’ve consumed
will definitely play
around with how it goes.
I honestly thought I was
not at my best performance,
 
and it’s because I...
Alcohol hits me in a way
that I get very...
kind of sleepy,
and kind of out of it.
 
For many people...
having alcohol in your system
will increase your libido
and your desire
to have sex.
 
While it also decreases...
Your ability to properly
consent to what is happening.
I already had sex
while being drunk,
 
but to the limit.
At least I was still aware
who I was with, where I was,
 
and if I wanted to.
 
I don’t drink alcohol,
so it never really happened
that I was in such a position.
Even in a couple
relationship,
people take advantage of that,
they think it’s okay to just...
Force themselves
on their partner.
I have said no before,
even under the influence,
and felt much more
comfortable.
I’m not totally against it,
but I think if you do it,
it should be with somebody
that you already know,
and that there’s
clear consent
when both of you
were sober.
Like for me, there was
a party a few months ago,
and this one girl at the party
was really into drinking.
 
But she was a virgin,
and she really wanted to
lose her virginity that night.
And I think that’s the perfect
example of something where
it really makes you not
in the best scenario to do that.
Because I know
the end result of that night
was that she got
what she wanted,
but she hated herself
for it afterwards.
Consent is as important
in a relationship,
 
a coupled relationship,
than it is with someone
you just met.
Even if you’re drunk
or not,
there’s still consequences
to your actions.
And there’s plenty of other ways
to have fun and sex
than mixing
alcohol into it.
