“The benefits of being sober in a professional setting is that you can trust people to be more capable to express their boundaries, their no-go’s, and wants for specific scenes. This is crucial for a good shooting, and it makes any scene safer, softcore or hardcore. It is important to be able to feel yourself at any given moment, and to be able to voice and stop anything that could feel triggering or unsafe.
This also applies to sober sex in a private setting, and it is not only about checking-in but being able to experience more pleasure too. When sober you can be way more attentive to yourself as well as your partner(s), which might give you more pleasure and agency so you can all engage together.
I would recommend sober sex over intoxicated sex, especially with new people. Sex with new people means entering a new dynamic, where you will be learning new things about somebody else, as well as yourself – so having the focus and attention is not to be underestimated.
It is quite subjective but being a bit tipsy can also be fun and relaxing. Nevertheless, it always depends on the situation, the people involved, and their state of intoxication. The more intoxicated we get, the harder it may be for us or our partners to express wants. It also gets harder to say no to things that one of us may suddenly not feel like doing anymore, to only realize afterwards that things have gotten too fast or too whatever.” @jasko_fide
“Having sober sex to me means that I am more aware of how I am with my partner and that also allows me to check in more with them. I am obviously a lot clearer with what I am doing and how I am doing it.
In contrast, intoxicated sex means I take more risks. I am also prone to be less caring about my partner’s current sexual health, but also my own. It is not to say that I have not had great intoxicated sex. The messiness of it all can be extremely fun. But that is also the issue; it is messy. Alcohol can change one’s perception and could loosen one’s boundaries. In moderation, it can help ease one’s nerves, but in a situation where the other person is not someone familiar, it could either make them uncomfortable or something could happen that violates one’s trust and sour the experience. In the end, when dealing with intimacy with unknown people, it is better to have a clear head and connect soberly.” @thebishopblack3000
