Researchers presented their findings at SLEEP 2010, the 24th annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies (APSS) in San Antonio, Texas proving that 'sexsomnia' or sleep-sex is a real self-reported sleep disorder.

Those suffering from sexsomnia, a parasomnia -where a person appears to be awake while asleep, begin a sexual act while still sleeping; it is apparently similar to sleepwalking, eating and other uncontrollable acts.
