Is your DH more confident in the bedroom after he has had a drink or two?

DH is quite shy really and does not say too much in the bedroom.

But when he has had a drink or two he is more able to say what he likes/wants.

Does anyone else find this and do you find this strange and wish he could eb confident without the drink?

My OH doesn't drink, but I'm definitely a different person in the bedroom when I've had a drink or two (and I don't mean I started sorting my wardrobe out for a change).

I don't know if my OH particularly like me having a drink or two, but it depends on the quality and whether he wants Mary-Ellen Walton or Angelina Jolie in bed. I was brought up to think there was probably no such thing as sex - and if there WAS such a thing, it would be rude.
He probably can't help it, and by having a drink he might be trying to make it more exciting for you - it isn't a reflection on you, IMHO.

Aren't most men crap in the bedroom after a few drinks?

That's just the brewers droop cornsilk, you need to catch the moment when inhibitions are lost and before lethergy takes over.

I don't think its strange or unusual if you're want you could approach things more gradually and openly when sober. But often a swift pint gives the short cut to confidence.

Its up to you. Short cut or gradual but longer lasting. I think.

Lol yeah - he's definitely more 'adventurous'! I never used to have sex with him when he had been drinking because he's a bit clumsy and beery - but we gave it a go and it rocked!!! He's not exactly shy in the bedroom but he's quite conventional, and he came with hangups from his upbringing that are less prominent when he's drunk!
