Barring low testosterone or something medical, a man's loss of attraction is frequently fairly superficial and straight forward - sex is routine, wife isn't enthusiastic, wife doesn't try to keep up her appearance.

Women's lack of attraction can also be medical or due to appearances; but I think it can also be more subtle - as in when they aren't attractive to a man who has become safe, stable, reliable, and weak. They want those things because then the guy is more likely to stick around and provide; but they also don't want those things because he isn't exciting and isn't arousing. [/quote]

Well now there is a very sexist perspective! Men are superficial and shallow. Women are deep and subtle.

How about the reasons can be complex and multi-faceted for both sides. [/quote]

Can be? Sure. Usually are? I doubt it. There is a reason men are the primary consumers of porn and women are the primary consumers of romance fiction. They are wired a little differently. Most men get aroused watching a hot chick doing filthy things. Women have different triggers. If a woman wants to get a man revved up, acting like  a porn star is probably going to work. If a man wants to get a woman revved up, acting like a romance book hero is probably going to work. [/quote]
