According to a new study, science has verified something that many cannabis users have known for ages: weed makes sex better. The study, which was published in the Journal of Health Economics, found that the amount of sex people have increases in states with medical cannabis. Researchers believe that marijuana lowers one’s inhibitions and makes them more able to indulge in behaviors that otherwise might cause anxiety or shame.
“Liberalized marijuana laws clearly lead to more use, and the effects from an epidemiological standpoint show clear increases in disinhibited sexual responses,” a sexologist says. There’s also a growing body of evidence suggesting that some compounds, including THC and possibly CBD, can increase vaginal and clitoral blood flow, which then signals to the brain that the body is down to fuck. “There may well be some women who smoke up before sex because it makes everything easier and perhaps better, but it also may affect the quality of orgasm, making it easier, with good sympathetic blood flow, to have one, and easier in the brain to suspend disbelief and let yourself go.”
