Chemsex & Intox Play: Risks, Consent and Safer Choices

What is chemsex?

Chemsex is a term used to describe the use of drugs such as crystal meth, GHB/GBL, or ketamine during sex or other sexual activity. These drugs can cause sexual arousal to increase and inhibitions to decrease. They can also cause the duration of intercourse to be prolonged and make you feel less tired.

What is Intox Play?

Intox Play is a term used to describe the use of drugs such as alcohol or drugs during BDSM sessions. This can lead to lowering inhibitions and feeling braver to try certain practices. However, it can also lead to a lack of proper awareness of one's limits, putting oneself and others at risk.

Risks of Chemsex and Intox Play

Although chemsex and Intox Play can be pleasurable for some people, there are also many risks that come along with it. These include:

  • An increased risk for sexually transmitted diseases
