Cuddling doesn’t necessarily conclude with blue balls. In fact, it may more often end with orgasm
Cuddling doesn’t necessarily conclude with blue balls. In fact, it may more often end with orgasm: One in three people say snuggling usually leads to more sex, finds a new University of Michigan study.
“People who enjoy and frequently engage in cuddling are often the same people who enjoy and frequently engage in sex,” says study author Sari van Anders, Ph.D.
One possible reason: “Both activities require a certain comfort with intimacy, bodies, and closeness,” she says.
You don’t have to go for hours, either. In the study, couples spent an average of 4.5 nights and 3.4 mornings a week cuddling, for 48 minutes per spoon session. (And if you’re really short on time, previous research shows the production of oxytocin—the so-called cuddle hormone that counteracts stress and encourages bonding—is stimulated after only 20 seconds of hugging.)
See how your own sessions compare with those of the people in the study—and make sure you’re doing what it takes for spooning to end with forking.
