Is alcohol affecting the way our brain interprets what our eyes see by removing “unwanted” features from the other person’s face? Does it raise our libido making us like a braider spectrum? Is it just an inhibition thing?

It’s called “Alcohol myopia,” and basically what it means is that the more you drink, the more you are interesting in short-term wants over long-term consequences. Like the person isn’t any more attractive to you, but your thinking slowly changes from “I want to meet and have sex with someone attractive, who would be a good partner to me, who my friends won’t tease me over, and who I could bring home to my parents,” to “I want to have sex.” Or you go from “I’m hungry. I want a tasty meal that isn’t too bad for me, won’t break my budget, and won’t make a huge mess,” to “I’m hungry. I need nachos RIGHT NOW” and you end up ordering take out even though it’s expensive, driving to Taco Bell even though you’re drunk, or throwing chips, cheese and beans in the microwave all at once until something explodes.
