Post-nut clarity is a term describing the feeling of being clear-headed or mentally "reset" after orgasm in sexual intercourse or masturbation. Feelings of disgust with oneself, as well as guilt, have also been associated with the term. Disgust and regret with the act of intercourse or with one's sexual partner has also been documented.
Etymology and usage
The word "nut" is found in the slang phrase busting a nut, which refers to an orgasm. The term "post-nut clarity" has been noted to be particularly used in online discussions. GQ reported that one Twitter user posted about the term in 2012. The rough term can be traced back to 2006 in Urban Dictionary. On the Japanese textboard 2channel, the term kenjataimu or "sage time", referring to the same concept, appeared as early as October 2007.
The phrase has been referenced in songs by Drake and Alemeda.
Coverage and research
Various Internet media writers have described "post-nut clarity" as akin to an "aha" moment for men following intercourse. Media coverage of post-nut clarity often associates men with being able to anecdotally relate to having experienced it, though women have also been documented experiencing the phenomenon.
While noted as similar to post-coital dysphoria (or post-coital tristesse), post-nut clarity has been discussed as a different phenomenon. Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, a professor of relational and sexual communication at Cal State Fullerton has stated "The scientific studies are talking about post-coital dysphoria as a condition".
