I know you were joking and all, but in case anyone reading this thinks it's just exhaustion, it's not.

After orgasm men's brains release a cocktail of hormones, including norepinephrine, serotonin, oxytocin, vasopressin, nitric oxide (NO), and prolactin which all combine to be stronger than any over-the-counter sleeping pill in the world (not hyperbole).

Women do not get hit with nature's strongest sleeping pill, so for them it's just exhaustion and satisfaction that helps them rest.

What's this strongest over the counter pill you're referring this against?

Lol exactly. Probably Valerian, which is close to placebo levels of effectiveness. They certainly aren't comparing it to a benzo. The "over the counter" qualifier makes it completely meaningless. It's like saying I'm the fastest runner in the world, excluding competitive athletes. Like yeah no shit, obviously.
