[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my DH becomes impotent he should expect cheating or divorce? [/quote]

I specifically used the term "physical intimacy", not "sexual intercourse".  There are plenty of ways to share physical intimacy without makin' babies.  [/quote]

But what if I want p-in-v sex? Is everyone who says it's acceptable to cheat on your wife also going to support that despite his inability to perform I'm entitled to have sex with a man who can get hard? Or simply divorce?[/quote]

That's a good question, but addresses an entirely different situation than the one I addressed.   I still stand by what I said -- which, I will point out, did not assign a gender to either party.  If one partner decides that physical intimacy of any sort is of no interest to them and makes no effort or compromise towards working on that aspect of their relationship, then they shouldn't find it suddenly important when the other partner looks elsewhere.

So I think we agree. When a man can no longer perform p-in-v, which was a understanding of their marriage, an open marriage or a divorce is an acceptable response. [/quote]

Yes but if the reverse happens, the man must stay because...?[/quote]

I've given no indication as to whether or not we agree.  The hypothetical scenario that you're putting forth has no relationship to mine -- it is simply so far removed as to be completely irrelevant.

It's as if I had said, "James doesn't like Thai food, but his Frank does, so don't be surprised if Frank goes to get Thai food all by himself.", and you then said "But what if James doesn't like to drink Arrack out of a glass shaped like a cowboy boot on Fridays after 4:57p or before 6:13p, would you say it's still okay if Frank still goes out to get Thai food?".   Of course, the scale, scope, and weight of the decisions involved are much larger when discussing physical intimacy, but the analogy still holds.   It's a completely different discussion and one has no bearing on the other.
