(New Scientist) Stoners may be trading sexual highs for the chemical kind. Males who smoke marijuana daily are four times more likely to have trouble reaching orgasm than men who don’t inhale, finds a new study of 8,656 Aussies.
Other smokers had the opposite problem, experiencing premature ejaculation at nearly three times the rate of non-smokers, find a team led by Marian Pitts at La Trobe University in Melbourne.
Now there’s a new reefer madness scare for you! Smoke too much pot and you’ll either orgasm too quickly or not at all! Sounds to me like more research needs to be done in this area to determine exactly how much pot a man needs to smoke and how often in order to orgasm at precisely the right time. Bring me the Deal or No Deal models, a pound of White Russian sinsemilla, and a notebook and let’s get to the science!

Even though many male smokers experienced sexual problems, they reported more partners than non-smokers. Marijuana users were twice as likely to have had two or more sex partners in the previous year than men who didn’t smoke pot.
So, then, smoking pot is going to help you attract the ladies, but once you get them to have sex with you, you’re going to have troubles in the bedroom. How does that work? Wouldn’t the ladies eventually make the connection that most of their pothead lovers are lousy in bed?
Pitts’ team found an even stronger trend for increased sexual activity among female smokers, who were also seven times more likely to have been diagnosed with a sexually transmitted infection in the last year than non-smokers. However, female smokers had no more problems in the bedroom than abstainers, Pitts’ team found.
And if you do get one of those pot-smoking ladies to jump in bed with you, you’re going to get a disease.
[A] 2007 study led by Marie Eloi-Stiven at Weill Medical College of Cornell University in New York found that marijuana users were far more likely than others to take sildenafil (Viagra) recreationally. This is presumably to counteract the perceived libido-sapping effects of marijuana, her team concluded.
Or, presumably, because men who enjoy enhancing the big head with pot might also like to enhance the little head with Viagra.
Once again, it seems like more reefer madness propaganda to scare men into thinking that smoking marijuana will ruin their sex lives. It used to be that marijuana was going to affect fertility, damage chromosomes, and unravel your DNA. Dr. Mitch Earleywine and I will discuss this in Cannabis Science tomorrow.
