I don’t buy that men would rather have sex (or at least sex with their wives) than “stuff.” If this was true, more men would be looking for part time, less stressful work so they could be more available for sex. But they don’t. Other things are more important. |
No... they are not. |
This is so true... i don't get it. It's like hating alcohol because it makes women more interested. |
You think a part time employed man who sits around for half the day is more attractive and therefore more likely to find a woman than a full time employed ambitious man? I promise you a big reason men strive for success is because they know power and money are seen as aphrodisiacs. |
Umm to have sex with the type of woman I want to have sex with you need to be able to provide for her, and survive so that you can be around to have more sex. I would definitely rather have sex than get stuff, any day. I can go buy stuff on my own, no woman needed. I need a woman to have sex with. |
So your wife does not work? Because 42% of women are breadwinners and 22% cobreadwinners. |
No. I am saying a married man who works 36 hours a week, exercises, and gets plenty of rest, is more likely to have good, regular sex with his wife than a man who works 60+ hours a week, is constantly stressed, and makes twice as much money. I am not saying that there aren’t a lot of benefits to the longer hours. There are. Just that clearly there are things a lot of men find more important than sex. |
| I got a gift and sex for Father's day. |
Your a peach. Thank gog he has that woman from his office. |
You might consider getting one of those. They’re aces for grammar and punctuation, spelling too. |
you must be a woman. you just simply do not understand men at all. most men want to have sex all the time. you conflate issues too - men have been programmed to "provide" for the family, and for many men, part of feeling masculine is being able to provide. Being masculine is what men have been told turns women on. Women who are turned on by their partners usually want to have frequent sex with their partners. |
In the grand scheme of things, sex doesn't take up much of your time. Totally possible to have plenty of sex if you have a full-time, demanding job. And the "stuff" in this thread that mean would happily give up for sex is not big picture stuff like his salary, but the crappy gifts he always gets on Hallmark holidays. |
My husband has a ton of money but doesn’t care about “stuff”. He definitely cares about sex and so do I but no doubt he’d like more frequency. |
42% of married women are the breadwinners? Doesn't correspond with my life or anyone I know. |
| I put in a very clear request for sex on Mother’s Day. Didn’t get it. Still haven’t. Not all men… |
