Post-Nut Clarity

When I am horny, thinking about eating my own cum turns me on, but when I cum I lose the nerve. Why is that?

What you’re experiencing is actually pretty common and can be explained by something known as the “post-orgasmic shift” or “post-nut clarity.” When you’re aroused, your brain is flooded with dopamine and other pleasure-inducing chemicals, which can lead to heightened desires and fantasies, such as the idea of eating your own semen. This state of arousal can make almost any sexual thought seem incredibly appealing, even if it’s something you might not consider outside of that moment. Once you orgasm, however, your brain chemistry changes dramatically. Dopamine levels drop, and your body releases prolactin, a hormone that promotes relaxation and reduces sexual desire. This often results in a sudden shift in your mindset, leading to what you described as “losing the nerve.” It’s like flipping a switch from being totally into an idea to feeling uninterested or even repulsed by it after the fact. Many men experience this same Post-Nut Clarity in their feelings, whether it’s about eating semen or other fantasies that feel less appealing after ejaculation occurs.

Can you edge? If you can edge to the point of a mini-ejac then you will still be horny and eager to taste your cum. I find that the initial little spurt seems to taste a little sweeter than the full load. Also helpful is freshly brushed teeth – something about that seems to make the semen sweeter too. Once you have tasted that initial spurt, hopefully it will overcum any inhibition about consuming your own load, and you will be able to fully savour the wonderful taste and feeling of your own cum in your mouth. If you’re limber, you can try throwing your legs back over your head so that you can ejaculate directly into your mouth – I loved to do this in my younger days. That way you are enjoying your cum as you are cumming, so there’s no inhibition to deal with. Then get out and meet one of the many men who are more than eager to make a sperm donation to a willing mouth. Enjoy! – Amar Rama
