| I slept with over 50 guys before marrying my DH at 30 (and he knows this), so my wild oats were largely taken care of. Once or twice a week satisfies me these days (two kids and 15 years of marriage). |

My reflexive answer is yes, but then no sex ever again seems like a big step. But I have zero desire for DH, although we do it on occasion. If never again with him but with someone else was an option than yes.
Married 15 years, 44 and I think I speak for most women I know |
No you don’t speak for us. Some of us really like sex, but we don’t preach about it or discuss on DCUM. |

39 DW. I’d have sex everyday if we could. (Both work, young kids, life).
And in fact over the summer when kids were at camp we did it everyday. I could not go without it and I have several friends like me who crave it a lot - and are all married. I do have a few friends - one without kids - who haven’t had sex in years. Same age. It’s not a one size fits all. |

If he was okay with me self satisfying once or twice a week, yes it’s fine.
I could not imagine tossing my H aside if he did not want sex. Love is not sex. |
It can be a way of expressing love. I think your statement is way too general. You can have love without sex or sex without love. You can't generalize about the relationship between the two. |
What type and how many STDs did you acquire? I am guessing you had to have had at least one. |
None. I’m healthy as a horse. A few pregnancy scares, though. |
So to speak. |
| What? No,I would never be ok with that. Who are you people? What sad and pathetic lives do you lead? |
| OMG yes. If I didn't have to wake up every morning with that hard on pushing on me I would be so glad. |
More likely, you are a 42 year old man that weighs 278 pounds, had Wendys 4 times in the last week, and has never heard a woman (aside from your mom) say "I love you." Keep tugging your pud, Stanley. |
I agree. Physical desire can be very loving. There are many types of love. I love many people, but the physical love I have with my husband is a HUGE part of my marriage. I’m happier with a loving sexual relationship. |
That’s just incorrect, so I really don’t know what to say. But I do detect an odor of misogyny in your post. |
Why gross? |
