We've all seen the senario, laughed at it, related to it or at least acknowledged it.
That classic steriotype Ross and Rachel or Friends, the one night stand trap and maybe even in our own lives.
The post sex cuddle.
What I am discussing today ladies and gentlemen is the steriotypical view that women want to cuddle after the knocking of boots.
It's not a new topic and not one of great importance but I feel it is I who must put this one to bed (pun intended).
It all clicked for me in Mrs Wearden's G.C.S.E Health and Social Care class. After watching a gruesome video of a woman giving birth to what appeared to be a relative of Old Greg crossed with a blamonge I watched the women craddle the baby that just seconds before was pushed out of her downstairs exit.
Imagine Ewan Mc Greggor climbing out of that toilet in Trainspotting and your not even close.
Whilst my class mates turned pale, shook, sat aghast and came over all faint, I wondered silently why the woman smiled down at the creature that just ripped her downstair area up and caused her an unspeakable amount of pain.
When I asked Mrs Wearden about this she told me that hormones released after the final contraction made the woman want to cuddle and cherish the baby.
And that was when it clicked.
Childbirth is just one big, messy, painful orgasm.
Without the simple release of hormones we wouldn't want to cuddle our slimy offsprings.
Without those hormones we'd be happy after sex but we wouldn't want to cuddle.
This also explains to me the reason why sex for men seem instinctual whereas sex for women is always presented as an act of love.
And men, altough this isn't changable, just be safe in the knowledge that without the chemically induced post coital cuddle you'd have to deal with the brunt of a women who after fifteen hours of childbirth was looking for the man responsible.
It's a small price to pay.
Who is the best role model?
