Can also be exressed as Omne animal triste post coitum, which is how the young novice Adso describes his feelings after being seduced by the beautiful peasant girl in the novel The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco.
Vulgar Latin.

Without looking it up, and from my rusty school latin, it sounds something like:
"All animals are sad after sex".
by Moley the contrary female dragon on November 4th, 2009
without googling it. Every animal is sad after sex?? After googling. I think it is something Trisram Shandy said.

so the next part of the question is do you believe it???
I tell you who seem to be the saddest are the male praying mantis, and black widow (and others like) that their female counterparts eat them...
so do you think that its like chasing the dragon (drug terminology) that its never as good as some other time in your life.
