That’s normal for semen to ooze back out of the vagina after intercourse – mostly due to gravity and the fact that there is nothing to stop it. This is what causes “the wet spot” if you have sex in bed – or wetness in your underwear if you get dressed soon after sex.

People tend to deal with this in a variety of ways. Some keep a towel or box of tissues close by so that they can do a bit of clean-up after the guy ejaculates. Others tend to make a dash for the bathroom for the same. A lot of people don’t worry about it at all – they just view it as another enjoyable part of sex. Those who don’t like the mess sometimes use condoms to keep things neat, as well as to reduce the risk of sexually-transmitted infections.
