Coolige effect
1 answer
The Coolidge effect refers to the phenomenon observed in mammals where males show renewed sexual interest in a novel female partner after becoming sexually exhausted with a previous partner. This effect is commonly seen in animals like rats and non-human primates, and is thought to be driven by an evolutionary instinct to maximize reproductive success by seeking out multiple mating opportunities. The Coolidge effect has also been studied in humans, particularly in the context of sexual arousal and desire.
