    Arrow Oxytosin, hormone found in women

    Check this out. It's an interesting read about a hormone found in women that makes us bond closer to babies after childbirth, and men after sex.

    I am quite familiar with oxytocin, having suffered its effects to the point that both my one-night stands turned into long-term, years-long relationships.

    We produce oxytocin when our nipples are stimulated, too.

    It's oxytocin's fault I can never just enjoy a quick shag without at least getting in a quick cuddle afterward. If I have a quickie and don't get my cuddle-time, I feel deprived and depressed for awhile.

    I should have known I was hormone imbalanced, I always wanted more sex after sex instead of cuddling.

    Haa... I always want more sex too, but I seldom get it, so I settle for a nice cuddle.

    I remember seeing something on TV about how women bond with their babies and become empathetic when it's secreted or something. I have trouble not being attached if I sleep with a guy but I'm not a huge cuddler and babies give me the creeps. Maybe I have a short supply of it.

    One produces oxytocin during the beginning of a relationship (making you have all those fuzzy, new-love feelings). It is also produced after orgasm, promoting cuddling (making conception more likely). The problem with oxytocin is that one's body develops a baseline tolerance of it after a while. You know when people say the "honeymoon period" is over? That's the oxytocin wearing off. I *wish* that new-love feeling could last forever.

    maybe I have a shortage of it and that's why I can't have a lasting relationship.

    Very interesting. I have heard of that one before. I knew it was a bonding one, amongst other purposes.

    Sex, cuddling during recharge, and more sex, and rinse and repeat sounds good to me.

    Number 4 on the link below is very interesting.

    The more orgasms you have, the more Oxytosin you make, its that simple!

    -good quote. Don't know if he is a quack or not though.

    Makes sense, though. Our bodies want us to find a suitable mate. Just figures that a suitable mate would include one who can make special sunshine time worth it.

    oxytosin is probably the only reason my boobmonster (baby) hasn't been thrown out the window.... that bond is an incredibly powerful thing and the ongoing release of the hormone due to breastfeeding has given me a patience I never ever thought I'd have.
    Yeah it's a beautiful thing, it's released in massage too sometimes making you "love" your therapist. It makes me a very happy person when I'm getting sex, my man can do no wrong... even if afterward I just want to roll over and go to sleep. No cuddling thanks, I'm happy.

    I was thinking the same thing. I don't get very emotionally involved in sex. I hate the feeling of a new relationship, I find it very uncomfortable.

    I have always been able to enjoy one night stands, though. Even my first sexual partner, I chose him because I didn't want any emotional attachment. Unfortunatly, he didn't feel the same way .

    I have always said that I didn't want to have babies. My mom used to try to convince me that when I "got older" I would change my mind. Huh, I'm in my late 30's now. How much older do I have to get?

    well funny enough I"m not into one night stands but really it's probably because I rarely really want to sleep with someone in the first place so if I do want to sleep with them I want it more than once. But like I said, I rarely get that attraction feeling.

    Paris, my mom seems to understand that I should not have kids. Maybe she senses I'd be a shitty mom. And I have a wonderful mom so it's not like she's being a bitch. I just know I'm not made for motherhood. But yeah, I have a lot of people try to tell me I'll change my mind and I'm 34. Don't think it'll happen.

    OK, kids. Oxytocin causes uterine contractions, facilitates lactation, and (in males) ejaculation. Pitocin is an artificial version of oxytocin that is used to stimulate labor. It's also used to make sea turtles lay eggs.

    Basically, it's the hormone that makes stuff squirt.

    Sorry to de-romanticize, but here's more:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitocin

    Although this is interesting:

    Maternal behavior. Sheep and rat females given oxytocin antagonists after giving birth do not exhibit typical maternal behavior. By contrast, virgin sheep females show maternal behavior towards foreign lambs upon cerebrospinal fluid infusion of oxytocin, which they would not do otherwise

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"

    So basically in a nutshell the more times you orgasm (men and women) the more 'attached' you become if you are orgasming with a partner? And your moods are just more stable and your physical pain goes away if you are masterbating?

    In a nutshell... right?
