Alcohol makes sure the tick goes in the right direction.

I like Australians.  I mean it.  Yeah, OK…I hate them for their sporting abilities and how they hurt my good old English boys every chance they can, but apart from that, I always thought they were good people.

Until today when my feelings changed.

They changed when I decided that they are freaking awesome.

In what is possibly the greatest study since I decided to see how much of my cats head I could fit in my mouth in one go, they have released research that claims that alcohol improves a man’s sexual performance in bed. 

(And for those who were curious, it was all of the cats head, but I got jaw lock in the process and the cat got away before I could complete my exercise.)

In the study, they worked out that the tee-totallers of the world have more issues in the sack than us alcoholics people who drink a little too much.

The news story printed in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, which I am signing up for just as soon as I have finished this post says:

Weekend drinkers and binge drinkers had lower rates of erectile dysfunction than those who drank one  day a week or less, according to the research.

I want to look at this objectively.  You know, to give both sides a good chance to prove why they think they are better. 

I looked at myself several years ago when I was going through a bit of a dry spell…with both alcohol and women, and then I looked at myself now…a man that drinks more than the amount weekly that the UK government label as “alcoholism”.  Of course, that means more than 4 beers a week.  I have more than that on a Friday night before I start drinking.

So the younger nervous dude that I was:  Too shy to speak to women, and when I did, I generally messed it up…unless THEY were drunk.  And then my incoherent rambling actually made sense to them.  But then…boy was I ever crap in the sack.  “Do something different to me Sy!”they would say.  So I did.  But because of my naivety, I thought that making them dress up as a Zulu warrior and me entering the room as an English soldier, and then telling them “I will cut your throat and leave you for dead!” was a good thing.  Well, it worked for me.  Not for them it seemed.  I didn’t get the best label I have to say.

But then the drunken me:  I would start drinking at dinner, sink too much alcohol and stumble about a lot.  Then I would try to get amorous with my wife.  Being a drunk sweaty mess who is falling out of bed while trying to get my freak on, my wife would tell me to leave the room and think about what I was doing (which was her teddy bear at one point I think) and come to the realisation that I perform a lot better when I fall unconscious and therefore leave her alone.

So I guess the research is a little flawed, or at least they need to give a little more detail than the news story actually mentions.
