  3. Sex and Alcohol • May leave users unconscious or severely sedated • Users can become easy targets for sexual predators • Social inhibitions reduced • “Beer goggles” can cause a person to have little or no discretion in choosing a sexual partner

  4. Sex and Alcohol • Effects sexual performance (ex. unable to maintain erection or produce vaginal lubrication, inhibited orgasms, decrease pleasure, etc) • Inhibits testosterone production in men • Inability to remember or use condoms correctly
