Usually, around this time of year, I spend Valentine’s Day eating a cheesesteak from Boo’s Philly Cheesesteaks to protest the overpriced extravagant dinners and tasting menus. A hot, cheesy sandwich “wit Wiz” and greasy peppers dripping down my chin is my jam.
I’m conflicted about Valentine’s Day. I dislike the commercialization of the holiday and how it makes us think that buying gifts and expensive experiences is the measure of love. Gifts are only one of the ways we express love. There are 5 love languages in which we communicate love: Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch.
The way we express our love language may not necessarily be the way that we like to receive love. For example, I appreciate quality time. Which can be as simple as sharing a meal together or sharing a joint before bedtime.
That before-bedtime-joint has become my most cherished ritual. It’s time to unwind from the day, clear my cluttered mind, and be fully present. By the time the effects of the joint have washed over me, I’m completely relaxed and engaged with the person next to me.
How does weed improve sex?
Cannabis has a way of unlocking intimacy, honest sharing, interesting conversations, laughter, and emotional growth. All of this leads to better sex. Don’t believe me? Studies prove that weed leads to better sex – here, here, and better orgasms here.
Cannabis makes me feel less distracted, more euphoric, less self-conscious, laugh, and have more fun. Couldn’t we all use a little more of this in our daily lives?
Smoking isn’t the only way to get the benefits of weed to get frisky. An edible like gummies and chocolate, or beverage like tea and sparkling drinks is an intuitive way to incorporate it into your daily routine. If Valentine’s Day is the occasion that’ll inspire you to finally try cannabis for mind-blowing sex… go get it!

I hosted a Galentine’s *Catnip* Brunch today where we had a conversation about women’s sexuality, cannabis, and sex. I was inspired by the story behind Lunatic Femme’s name about how the female body morphs from maiden to mother to crone. But what if none of those three options feels right? That can’t be the only three choices for women. We’re femme lunatique.
“We like to get unstuck. To make waves. To create ripples. To cause a stir. We are playfully curious, creatively rebellious, unapologetically sexy. We believe in embracing the feminine emergy that makes the world go round, regardless of who you are or how you identify. We believe in showing up authentically… always finding the power in your authenticity and truth – which is constantly evolving.”
XOXO, Christina W.
