Intoxication play
Intoxication play (also called Intox) involves the use of drugs in conjunction with sexual activity. Participants may engage in intoxication to enhance the physical sensations or mental headspaces of a scene. Intoxication play may involve the use of one or more of a wide range of substances, each of which carries unique risks and interactions that must be carefully considered.

Risks and risk mitigation
In most jurisdictions, intoxicated people are not able to give or withdraw legal consent, even if intoxication was caused voluntarily. Intoxication is usually prima facie evidence of nonconsentuality, so criminal liability easily attaches to any scene involving intoxicants.
