If it was men complaining about the same thing i am sure the response would have been different.
NoIDidn't Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Well, because it was women interviewing other women, maybe they felt a shared understanding therefore, the non-judgmental tone. Its a well-documented complaint from men that they don't get enough sex and so they do xyz because of it. Its not something that women admit too much. But it IS true. I was about to leave my H over it when we first got married. Times have changed. Not that I agree with all of the changes, but at least women are seeing that they, too, have *options*. <insert snicker>

Any man who would say to an interviewer "I don't get enough" would be chastised and questioned as it being his fault "emotionally" or he "doesn't help enough around the house" 90% of the time that this is happening. The free pass these women got was enlightening. As a male I too did not blame them as the claimed they tried and their husbands were not interested.
Reggie Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 If women would learn to meet the emotional needs of men and would help with the production of income more, men would want to have sex with them more frequently.
seibert253 Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 If my wife came to me complaining she didn't have enough sex, problem solved in no time at all. However when I mentioned this to her, her response was "too bad I just don't feel like it". I'm pretty sure if you did a scientific poll, you'd find many more men who don't get enough, as opposed to women.
soserious1 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 If women would learn to meet the emotional needs of men and would help with the production of income more, men would want to have sex with them more frequently. LOL,I earned ALL the income.... he wasn't interested at all in having sex with me.
OpenBook Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 If women would learn to meet the emotional needs of men and would help with the production of income more, men would want to have sex with them more frequently. What on God's green earth does "production of income" have to do with sexual desire????????
Reggie Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 What on God's green earth does "production of income" have to do with sexual desire???????? This was a bit of sarcasm. But, I think both genders pin their dissatisfaction in this department on the other, with women claiming a lack of emotional intimacy as the reason for lack of desire. What many fail to realize is that they do not meet their husband's emotional needs or appreciate their husband's strenghts in other areas. No gender has a monopoly on either earning or being emotionally intimate. Some men are much better in the emotional intimacy area than women and vice versa. The income thing was just a bit of parody to show that men could come up with reasons, just like women, for not being interested in sex.

Still not sure of the comment or the appropriateness, but could you imagine a man, saying to a woman "If you brought in more money, maybe I wouldn't feel so stressed and we could have more sex....." The "emotional" comments heard over and over are sometimes too much to listen to as we are complete imbeciles and don't get it. Again I understand if the sex is bad that there are issues. Too often though all the "plumbing" works and that still is not enough.
