Understanding acute alcohol effects on sexual behavior
Article Abstract:
Drinking alcoholic beverages appears to have a causal effect on many aspects of human sexual behavior. Alcohol expectancy appears to account for postdrinking sexual reaction and perception, while alcohol myopia analyses persuasively explain postdrinking manifestations of sexual assault and sexual risk taking.

Article Abstract:
Event-level research suggests people who use condoms while sober tend to use them after drinking alcohol, and those who do not use condoms also do not use them when drinking. This finding challenges the widely-held belief that alcohol use leads to sexual risk behavior.
