Women often complain about a partner who rolls over and falls asleep immediately after sex when what the woman is looking for is a little post-sex cuddling and sweet talk. What's that all about?
Both men and women release oxytocin and vasopressin during sex which induce drowsiness, but men's sexual response cycle differs signficantly from women. Men drop very quickly from a state of maximum arousal and orgasm back to the pre-arousal state, whereas women experience a much more gradual decline. Typically, men are also exerting more physical energy during sex that contributes to their post-sex collapse.
If you're a woman who needs more after sex than the comforting sound of your partner's snoring, it's important to voice your need. Be reasonable in your request- ask for 10 minutes of your lover's time before you both drift off into a deep and restful sleep.
