[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guy here:  When I married my wife I went in with the mindset that I was committed to meeting her needs over the long term.  We've talked openly about our needs and some of hers include:
- Me talking to her every day without being distracted 
- Being fiscally responsible and earning a good living
- Helping around the house: I pick up, do dishes, clean the kitchen, make the bed, put away laundry, do the grocery shopping, etc
- Being a good parent: I do homework every night, participate in cubscouts, do stuff with the kid every day.

I'm 45 and stay very fit (avid cyclist, gym guy) when I started having ED issuses I went and saw my doc and went through a series of embarassing conversations plus tests.

I'm naturally disinterested in doing most of the items above and I wouldn't do them if it wasn't something she needed.  If she were to get to a point where she was unwilling to meet my needs just because some article on Jezebel resonated with her that wouldn't work for me.  That's not a mature or realistic or sustainable view of a relationship.

How about exhaustion, depression, anxiety, [b]cancer[/b], ..... really... you think people are not having sex because of a Jezebel article?

I doubt you talk EVERY DAY without distraction or if you only had time for 3 time a week now that you have kids I doubt you wife would emotionally abuse you. [/quote]

Really, PP? This is the equivalent of the Hitler argument in debate. Yes, female libidos are fickle after marriage and after 40. No one said women are evil because of it, but to deny this is true and to say it's mostly due to things on the level of cancer -- rather than a lot of other things that can be addressed through hard work and caring -- is just a crap argument.[/quote]
