Sexsomnia
I saw an episode of Special Victims Unit about "sexsomnia," the tendency to have sex while asleep. It appears to not only exist, but to be more common than you might think. Eleven percent of men and four percent of women referred to a sleep clinic reported this problem. The rates in the general population would obviously be much, much lower.
