context_page_description: Party and play is the consumption of drugs to facilitate or enhance sexual activity. Sociologically, it refers to a subculture of recreational drug users who engage in high-risk sexual activities under the influence of drugs within sub-groups. This can include little use of condoms during sessions with multiple sexual partners that may continue for days.
  The drug of choice is typically methamphetamine, known as crystal meth, tina or T, but other drugs are also used, such as mephedrone, GHB, GBL, and alkyl nitrites. Slamsex is associated with users who inject the drugs.
  Some studies have found that people participating in such sex parties have a higher probability of acquiring sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV/AIDS, by having unprotected anal sex with large numbers of sexual partners. For this reason, it is considered "a public health priority."
