Why men fall asleep so fast after sex?

They just can't help it. Add that to the list along with the reasons for infidelity, etc. And here I always thought it was due to blood depletion in the brain after a sustained erection. Well, sorta, maybe.

unsatisfied wives and girlfriends have wondered why their otherwise-perfect male partners roll over and fall straight to sleep after sex instead of engaging in endless chit-chat

Does that mean, if they were satisfied, they didn't require chit-chat, and fell asleep also?

Because, if they fall asleep before having sex...

From what I heard guys complain about it was the gals falling asleep during fumbling or uninspiring attempts at foreplay by the guys. And sometimes while the men were in the process of intercourse!!! Seriously!!!! I think those relationships are in trouble with a capital T!

Wow, some of the replies by the guys are really sexist! Sounds more like wham, bam, thank you mam (thank you if you're lucky!)

Brain scans showed that after orgasm, the thinking area of men’s brains actually shuts down. Other parts then send a message out that the job is done, to let the body know that its interest in sex is no longer required.

Guys will always go to the "Nothing box".

What do you mean it shuts down after orgasm? I can show hundreds of men whose brain shut well before that!

It reminds me of the old joke:

Why do men give their penis a name?

Because they don't want a stranger makng decisions for them!
