Lack of sex = grouchy?

Upon reading this, my first thought was, “Boy, somebody needs to get laid”. Because I’m a coward I won’t share my opinion as to who, but the thought got me to thinking.
Hence, the question;
Is there any scientific evidence that lack of sex causes one to be cantankerous? We all know that it does, but I wonder if there’s any proof.
After all, priests (bad example?) don’t seem to be any grouchier than the average person, do they.
Besides, I wanted to share. :wink:

I think the problem is a lack of intimancy with other people, not a lack of sex per se. If you’re not getting laid, you probably don’t have a partner, aren’t going on a lot of dates, aren’t getting attention from members of the sex you are attracted to, etc., so you’re self-esteem suffers. Personally, I don’t find that a lack of sex makes me grumpy. If I’m in a good mood after I get laid, it’s because I’ve just been with someone I like. I can’t imagine there’s any direct correlation between frequency of sexual encounters and cheerfulness.

I think it’s Cecil who needs to get laid :wink:

Argh! I wasn’t gonna say that.
You’re on your own, buddy. :wink:
