Is your husband a sexsomniac?

Making love in the middle of the night sounds undoubtedly pleasurable. But what if you suddenly realise that your partner is fully asleep on the job? One couple in the UK related their story to the Daily Mail. The wife, Anita Sayer, 29, says she would wake up to her husband's urgent groping. She has to push her persistent husband forcefully to the other side of the bed - and this can happen up to three times a night, leaving her annoyed and exhausted. Her husband Dan always responds with a blank stare when she tells him about his fumbling in the wee hours of the morning: he simply doesn't remember. He has what researchers term "sexsomnia." First identified as a condition in the 90s, it collectively describes behaviours such as masturbation, fondling, sexual intercourse with climax and sexual assault or rape while asleep. And sexsomniacs don't recall any of their behaviour at all.
