Love, Sex and Attraction

Why do men fall asleep after sex?

From The Female Brain by Louann Brizendine

Short answer:

It is a biochemical reaction when a man reaches orgasm, which induces sleepiness for men.  For a woman, on the other hand, sensations during an orgasm are a stimulus.

Conclusion:

It is not his fault.  So next time when he rolls over and falls asleep, it is only nature taking its course.  But if he tries to stay awake, show your appreciation.  He is making an effort to cuddle with you.

They are most time tired from trying to please their sexual partners!

OK we only get tired of the games, and the teasting is what drives us crazy and want more and more. But when it’s all said and done. we get tired and want to hold the person we are with to show our love for them. Or to show we are happy with the person we are with…

I’m single go figure.

Kitty, you have a sence of humor. Linda, I agree with you, some women just need more attention which is all part of the fun.
