Marijuana: the ultimate sex drug by Chris Bennett 11 Jan, 2000
Excerpt: The origins of sexual marijuana use are bound up with the fertility rites that accompanied early agriculture. In the hunter-gatherer phase of human existence, shamans used imitative magic to draw herds of animals to the hunting ground by dressing in animal heads and skins for ritual dances. When humanity made the transition from hunter-gatherer to farmer, this same logic was applied to the planting of crops, and thus the agricultural cycle was imbued with symbolism and accompanying rites.

Excerpt: Like adding a third voice to a duet to enhance the harmony, THC -- the active ingredient in marijuana -- joins with a female hormone and a brain chemical to boost sexual activity in female rats, Texas researchers have shown.

There is no evidence that marijuana causes infertility in men or women. In animal studies, high doses of THC diminish the production of some sex hormones and can impair reproduction. However, most studies of humans have found that marijuana has no impact on sex hormones. In those studies showing an impact, it is modest, temporary, and of no apparent consequence for reproduction.
