Coke is a "sexy drug". Not like those horrid drugs that make you eat your face and lose interest in your dental hygiene, right?

As such, it's often featured alongside scenes of glamourous debauchery in movies and, on paper, it makes sense. Cocaine makes you feel euphoric, confident, affectionate and sexy, why wouldn't you want to get down to a good bit of bonking on all that?

Well, presuming you find a willing partner, and haven't irritated all of the eligible partners in the vicinity by talking at them until they all leave, sex is probably still off the cards for more physical reasons.

Coke can restrict the blood vessels that help you get your bone on, leading to a rather disappointing display. On the other hand, moderate doses can give gentlemen what is known as a priapism - a persistent and painful erection which, despite appearances, is absolutely no fun to have sex with.

The ladies don't get away scot free either, as cocaine can dry your little lady out like there's no tomorrow. You thought the dry mouth was bad? Try poking it with a priapism and then see just how (un)sexy cocaine sex really is.

And please, don't blow it up your butt. At least, not without due preparation.
