What It Means If She Cries After Sex

You want a naked woman in your bed to be one of two things: horny or satisfied.

But what if she cries?

It’s a common experience, according to new Australian research. Nearly half of women have felt unexplainable sadness after sex, the study finds.

Researchers call the phenomenon “postcoital dysphoria.” It can involve bursting into tears or just feeling depressed or anxious.

The good news: Her crying may have nothing to do with you. The women in the study specified that their feelings were “inexplicable,” so it’s not like it could be traced back to, say, the guy’s tragically subpar skills in the sack.
