Making up after the fight
Why is make-up sex so good? Dr Aaron Ben-Zeév, a professor of philosophy at the University of Haifa, Israel, and author of The Subtlety of Emotions, Love Online:Emotions on the Internet, and In The Name of Love, wrote in Psychology Today that this is because the excitement in make-up sex is the transfer of the arousal state from one situation to another.
“When we are excited by one stimulus, we are likely to be easily excited by another one. Make-up sex is considered by many to be the best sex there is, which in many cases is worth the fight,” he said.
Of course there are risks to having these occurences being more the norm than the exception, but truth be told, make-up sex is wild and extremely gratifying, as the women below share.
CC:
Yes, it is twice as nice. I am not sure why, but it’s just sweeter, especially if the argument was a huge deal. I am speaking from experience here.
SJ:
I realise that when I fight with my man he gets more aggressive sexually and I just love it. It gives us some serious fire and because of that, I argue with my man anytime I need sex. Call me crazy, but I am sure it is the reality for almost every woman.
BH:
When we argue I enjoy the make-up sex. I am not sure if it is because the adrenaline is on the rise, but it has me always wanting to fight with my man over every single thing.
Janet:
Yes, it makes the sex sweet. Sometimes I start up arguments just for the sex after, which is going to blow my mind.
Camara:
Sex is always sweet after a big disagreement. Ask any woman, if she’s real, and she will tell you that she agrees with me.
