Yes, I get them as a male 34 yo taking XL 150. Anxiety plays a great deal too. But then again an anti depressant can cause almost any bizarre side effect at anytime during treatment. Just remember the pros and cons and don't stress over the somewhat anti-stress drug -defeats the purpose.

Can lipitor cause hot flashes and night sweats in men?
Yes, it can, although it is not a common side effect. For my high cholesterol (I am male), I was prescribed Simvastatin (Zocor). Each time I took the prescribed dose, I had severe hot flashes. I stopped taking that statin and the hot flashes immediately stopped. Later, I was prescribed Lipitor. As with the Simvastatin, I had severe hot flashes. I was told by my doctor that this is a known, though not very common side effect of some statins. After those experiences, I was prescribed Livalo (another statin). She said this should be much less likely to cause the hot flashes. After a month on the Livalo, I have no noticeable side effects. If you're having night flashes taking Lipitor, I would suggest asking your doctor if another type of statin would be appropriate for your needs and be less likely to cause the hot flashes.
