Why some people ‘glue together’ during sex

Recently, the international media were awash with the story of an Italian couple whose genitals got stuck together during sex in the waters of a Porto San Giorgio beach in Italy. The duo remained locked until a woman with a towel came and helped the pair walk to the shore where a medic, called by beachgoers, brought them to a local hospital before they could be separated.
