Here's looking atchoo: Sneeze and sex could be linked

I hadn't ever heard of that, but interestingly my son often sneezes when going out into sunlight. My wife says that a couple of her brothers do the same. I guess sneezing can be associated with all kinds of bizarre things.

It is my understanding that erectile tissue is very similar to the tissue that lines the nasal cavities. It is not uncommon for extended (no pun intended) periods of sexual arousal to be accompanied by nasal congestion. In fact, this used to be called "honeymoon nose." It would make sense that for some, this congestion might be enhanced and that some additional sensitivity to the change might end in a sneeze.

That's a genetic autosomal dominant trait called the "Photic sneeze reflex".
