I know, it's awkward and uncomfortable and alcohol makes everything seem so much easier, but humans were built to have sex. Alcohol might be able to speed things along to the bedroom, but it's not going to make sex better. That being said, drunk sex is probably how you'll have sex with someone for the first time. However, if you're in a relationship with someone or seeing them regularly enough, hanging out without alcohol involved, surely your genitals can join the party too. It's like a litmus test for relationships. How to tell if you really like each other and 'connect' well. I'm not saying to not drink at all. Take one or two to relax yourself but sober sex, or almost sober sex, is always more satisfying than blind drunk.
You'll Remember It
One of the many benefits of being sober for sex is that you'll remember it the next day. Granted, if it's a shitty sexperience, it won't be enjoyable to remember. But if it's great, don't you want to hold on to that memory? You were involved, right? If you can't remember it, did it even happen?
You'll Feel Everything
Everything is heightened. All warm arms surrounding you, the feel of hands on your legs, each sensation of pleasure. When you're drunk, everything is dulled and blurry. Sex is so much better when you can experience everything... even the awkward parts.
You Won't Fall Asleep
One of the many drawbacks of drunk sex is sleepiness, especially if you've been drinking beer all night. There's not much less sexy than one or both of you falling asleep mid-coitus. It's embarrassing for both parties.
You're More Likely To Keep It Up
Just like you, the penis isn't great at staying awake after you've had a few. Who wants to deal with a limp johnson when they're in the mood? Like falling asleep, it is embarrassing, but not always the end of the night's sextivities.
You Know What's Going On
You're an active and eager participant in the evening's activities. No longer will you rely on RedTube to fill in the blanks of your drunken sex-encounter. Sex is great and practice makes perfect, so go out and try things... just don't experiment while out-of-your-mind drunk.
No Gross And Painful Hangover
Hangovers really kill the mood the morning after. Morning sex is a whole lot better when you're not hanging. Wouldn't you prefer to wake up and not look and feel completely gross?
You'll Actually See Who You're With
Granted, they're going to see you too. But isn't it better to see and appreciate another person's body than fumble about drunkenly under the sheets until you clumsily reach an awkward and unsatisfying climax? If you've been lucky enough to get the hottest guy/girl at the party, don't you want to be able to remember their beautiful naked body? Try it, should be fun.
