Why do I sneeze when I think about sex?

Asked by susanc (16144points) March 29th, 2011

It’s only when I’m having a nice little fantasy about the conversation building up to the nice big kiss. Achoo. Excuse me. Achoo.

Apparently you have a nose for sex. Might have to sniff out some hanky panky. Perhaps look for a bridge between that ‘nice big kiss’ and a nice big O.

Or I could recommend my therapist…Mr. Durante. a cha cha chaaaa

Anxiety? My dog sneezes when he’s scared. Perhaps your body is reacting to some stress, fear, or anxiety associated with the vulnerable nature of sex?

Are you sneezing as you read my post?

I don’t know but that’s kind of hilarious!

Reverse Spit roast, and I’m not even going to bless you.

Oh well… since I haven’t experienced full-on sex with another person for 3 years, some of you are probably right about the anxiety thing. A long vacation makes it all seem very weird and daunting to imagine.
@rarebear, alas, no. It takes more than a survey question to get me going.

You may be thinking of that infamous porn star Al.R.Gee…....or perhaps not.

Well, a great sneeze is rather like a great orgasm, no? Both a huge release. Maybe your body is compensating for the lack ‘o sex going on in your life at the moment. Get busy, woman!

You’re not alone. It occasionally happens to me, if I’m lying in bed next to my partner as she dozes in the morning, and I idly think about fucking her then, atishoo! Not sure why, though I also have a photic sneeze reaction, in that sunlight can also make me sneeze.

There’s been some limited research into the phenomenon

I wonder if it’s the same reason thinking about pineapple makes us stop sneezing? I know in that case, you think about pineapple and your throat anticipates the acidity and does something. Maybe it’s the same idea?
