[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have men's feelings about this changed since the, say, 1950s?  If you think of the stereotype of women just lay there and tolerated it, were men unhappy?  Or does the sexual revolution and preponderance of porn change their views?

Another way to ask: are men's egos now programmed by external stuff to make how they feel about themselves equate to how sexually desirable they feel?  [/quote]

Some thoughts in no particular order:

1. Maybe externally created expectations have made guys less happy with what they have. 
2. Maybe externally created expectations have made women more likely to reject initiations.
3. Stereotype of the asexual wife in the 1950s was probably overblown. 
4. Men in the 1950s may have been as or more unhappy with their sex lives than guys now.
5. Less feminism and (the corresponding) manlier men may have made wives feel more sexual toward their husbands in the 50s.*

* I'm not trying to bash feminism. But I think the messages of feminism have made a lot of guys confused about how to be the "confident"/dominant guy that a lot of women seem attracted to without being disrespectful to the equality of women. (A lot of women too, perhaps). [/quote]
