The Girl (C '19)

If there’s one thing the vast majority of college students can agree upon, it’s that sex rocks. Yeah, you might have a few awkward/random/mortifying sexual encounters, but on the whole, sex is… orgasmic. And if you don’t think so, you’re doing it wrong. But there’s something that could definitely help your cause: weed.

As a low–key stoner, I tend to get high a lot. And as a monogamous person, I tend to have a lot of sex with the same person. Combine those two things together? Woah. Though not everyone is willing to admit it, sex makes us nervous sometimes. And in or out of bed, nerves have a nasty tendency to fuck shit up. That's where weed comes in. That mellow, happy haze that comes along with a good high is a great way to get rid of that unnecessary, mood–ruining angst.

Not to mention the fact that weed can strengthen and heighten physical sensations. 

Close your eyes, relax. Maybe go somewhere you can be alone and imagine. You’ve just smoked a *insert marijuana apparatus of choice here* and you’re feelin’ yourself. Across the room is that hot guy/gal that you’ve been eyeing in your Econ 001 lecture. Armed with hash–inspired confidence and sexy, half mast–if not a bit pink–eyes, you finally make your move. Flash forward and you’re still feelin’ yourself. Not because you’re still high, but because you just had the best sex of your life. Why? He or she was hot and you were high. It’s a recipe for… well, you know.

And honestly, the technicalities, and even the end result, are irrelevant. High sex is the perfect excuse to partake in two of life’s most beautiful things. Together. At the same time. So, go ahead, treat yoself.


The Guy (C'17)

I haven’t smoked weed in a little over a month now—summer internships got me by the balls—and I have to say one of the things I miss most is having sex while high. What’s not to love about high sex? Think of it this way: It’s basically sober sex but all of your senses are heightened. Plus, you can use your high brain to think of fun ideas.

With drunk sex I feel loose and confident but my body is numbed—and by that I mean...whiskey dick. But high sex is different and, in my opinion, better than either drunk sex or sober sex. With high sex I feel creative, adventurous, and instead of being numb, my body is much more sensitive just about everywhere. If your partner is high too, that’s even better—it can make the whole experience much more intimate.

Being high can take away a nervous edge that can come with the revealing nature of sex. I will admit that making out can get complicated with dry mouth, but just skip that shit and let the hands roam. As things start to heat up it’s time to get weird. It’s really fun to be creative in bed when you’re high—beware of giggle fits, though. Being high in bed allows you to try something new. Personally, I highly recommend a stoned 69; it can be even better than high sex to be totally honest. Whatever you think of, just go with your and your partner’s wandering minds and it can be really fun, explorative and sexy. Not to mention it’ll feel amazing.
