That fact alone is why my girlfriend likes to smoke a bit every now and then before a romp. It affects everyone differently, though, so if you're having problems stay away from it if you know sex is a possibility.

 I live in Amsterdam and so have had plenty of experience with pot. I have not experenced or heard of this happening. However everyone reacts differently and what you describe sounds very plausible.
My guess would be that you are nervous about your performance in some way, and the pot exacerbated that. It's easy to get slightly paranoid and wonder what other people are thinking of you when stoned... which is a sure-fire way to lose an erection.

 You've answered your own question, haven't you? :)
If you must get stoned, try being less stoned. You need to have a certain level of concentration to be able to maintain an erection. Your brain is too fried to have that concentration. It's happening for exactly the same reason that someone who is too drunk can not maintain an erection. You need a certain amount of conscious involvement - so - don't get so stoned and you'll notice a big difference.

 Marijuana can decrease testosterone. Lots of men who smoke it long term also develop the dreaded man-boobs! It relaxes you so naturally it's difficult to become aroused when your nervous system is dulled. Sorry for the bad news but lay off the weed when you wanna get laid
