SKIP THAT SECOND GLASS OF WINE
It’s not only young people for whom alcohol and sex can make a bad combination. Many adults in Britain also drink far more than the recommended daily amount and, quite aside from myriad other health issues, this can have a serious impact on sexuality and sexual satisfaction. As Shakespeare put it in Macbeth: ‘Alcohol provokes the desire, but takes away the performance.’ He did not add, ‘particularly with advancing age’, but we can. Many of us desire alcohol’s disinhibiting effect, but of course we don’t want to pay for it with diminished function.
