  • It's not even the "Have sex every night" part that gets to me, plenty of people suggest that for whatever reason, it's her entire attitude in the whole article. It's ok to not want sex.
  • A FB friend posted this... Her husband is an over the road trucker so I'd love to know how that's working.
    AHAHA! This made me laugh probably more than is acceptable.
  • Listen. I'm on day 10 of a 14 day restriction.  All I want is sex. But guess what?  My husband still feels like a man.  I still feel loved and found a way to have moments for just the two of us.  Blargh.

    Now. In 4 days, I'll probably hate sex again.

  • Ha!  I probably couldn't get DH to have sex every night. I guess I'll have to find other ways for him to pound his chest and feel like a man.

  • Wow, men are simplistic creatures that all want the same things!  I never knew.  I guess I'll go inform DH, and then he can insult her much more creatively than I can.

  • I just *love* the sweeping generalizations, and the characterization of men as simple brutes. /s

    Oy. This kind of thinking is so damaging. People (ALL people) are complex, and different things work for different people!

  • Wtf. This is the kind of attitude prevalent in the church we recently left ( you must "serve" your husband by having sex with him).

    Eye-roll on so many levels.

    Married August 2009

    3 years. 5 losses.

  • And what if it is the wife who wants the sexy time but the husband doesn't? We both have times when one of us wants it and the other isn't in the mood. It isn't always the woman who isn't in the mood.

  • lol this is just ridiculous.  My Dh and I couldn't have sex every night even if we wanted to because we work opposite schedules and don't see each other Monday-Friday other than the occasional 5-10 minute overlap some days... His manhood is never in question.  I'm also pretty confident that if I tried to have sex with him every night at least once or twice aweek he'd say "I'm too tired" and roll over.
