A new study shows that “sexsomnia,” a sleeping disorder where people try to have sex in their sleep, is more common than scientists initially believed. Research revealed that one in 12 people—three-fourths more men than women—were self-reported “sexsomniacs.” Their sexual behavior while sleeping ranged from masturbation to intercourse. The thing that makes it really crappy is that the “sexsomniac” usually doesn’t remember any of it in the morning. The side effects for “sexsomniacs” are fairly mild, like they may be kind of tired or depressed the next day. The consequences however can be way more dire for their partners or even people who share the same house with them. Just imagine the awful possibilities. Talk about a nightmare. [Telegraph]
