Evolution is responsible for this reflex. During animal sex males use a part of their body to remove sperm any competing males may have deposited. Males that fail to stop their “removal action” after making their own sperm “deposit” leave fewer descendants.
Predictably changing sex partners mitigates this cool down reflex: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coolidge_effect named after an American president:
> an old joke about Calvin Coolidge when he was President … The President and Mrs. Coolidge were being shown [separately] around an experimental government farm. When [Mrs. Coolidge] came to the chicken yard she noticed that a rooster was mating very frequently. She asked the attendant how often that happened and was told, “Dozens of times each day.” Mrs. Coolidge said, “Tell that to the President when he comes by.” Upon being told, the President asked, “Same hen every time?” The reply was, “Oh, no, Mr. President, a different hen every time.” President: “Tell that to Mrs. Coolidge.”
