Sleep Vs Cuddling<br />
Evolutionary psychologists at<br />
the University of Michigan and<br />
Albright College in Pennsylvania<br />
say that the tendency to fall<br />
asleep first after sex is associated<br />
with greater partner desire for<br />
post-coital cuddling and chatting.<br />
Explains lead author Daniel Kruger,<br />
“The more one's partner was likely<br />
to fall asleep after sex, the stronger<br />
the desire for bonding.” The study,<br />
that appears in the ‘Journal of<br />
Social, Evolutionary, and Cultural<br />
Psychology’, has found that falling<br />
asleep before one's partner may be<br />
a non-conscious way to foreclose<br />
on any commitment conversation<br />
after sex.<br />
The study did not find it more<br />
common for men to fall asleep first<br />
after sex. Women, however, were<br />
more likely to fall asleep first when<br />
sex hadn't taken place.<br />
