Yep, my DH always says the only thing he wants for Father's Day is free!

For me, it's not even on my radar as a Mother's Day gift.

It's about the kids and dad. Not dad's sexual needs or what he thinks he's entitled to from his wife.

are you seriously saying a husband, under normal circumstances, isn't entitled to have sex with his wife?

DP. No one is entitled to sex from anyone, even a spouse. Your attitude is more than a little rapey.

If a marital vow doesn’t allow entitlement to sex, then it doesn’t allow entitlement to monogamy - no?
Or are we splicing and dicing vows as we see fit?

Forsaking all others
To have
And to hold

Oh good, the marital rape advocate is back.

1. I have never posted anything like this before.
2. I do not believe that just because you are entitled to something, that you should break a law to have the vow/entitlement honored.
3. I would NEVER be advocating for the rape of any kind.

You can't have sex with somebody who has not consented, even your spouse.

I don’t need gifts in exchange for marital sex. I like the sex and am not a prostitute. However, I don’t want sex for a Mother’s Day gift.

You want jewelry for Mother’s Day! Do you need gifts in exchange for non marital sex?

No. I don’t need DH to do anything. I do like when he cooks shrimp gumbo. I have never received anything in exchange for sex and would be deeply insulted if something was offered.

+1 Way to make sex within a marriage more like a prostitute/john situation.

The original comment had an effing TYPO. The statement was “initiate sex more and DH may initiate more of the things you want. Chores, kid stuff, cooking - whatever. It supported reciprocity as an act of LOVE in a marriage.

The second comment was a CORRECTION of the typo and a joke about autocorrecting to AMEX. Nevertheless the autocorrect could still be apropos for some families, as a hot marital bed will have your DH/DW finding reason to whip out the AMEX. Maybe even if it’s only for Chinese food or a massage.

My last comment is that you all are foolish. Marriage is shared everything - how is it prostitution???! And if you are going to stand by that, how are you as a wife not as bad as a man seeking prostitution, by saying your DH must (fill in the blank) to get me to (full in the blank)?! Is that not pay for play?!

Either way it’s an effing barter system. Uptight prudes. This is why your men stray. You don’t listen to male advice, you don’t switch driving seats in your sex life, and you go down stupid rabbit holes and miss the point.

And another thing. Every mother(fo) on this thread talking about mothers and Father’s Day did get something in exchange for sex - a CHILD.

Father's Day is a Father's Day not a husband's day or birthday. So why the sex is in the talks?

How did he get to be a father? You wouldn't be celebrating him if his swimmers didn't reach the finish line. Think of it like a re-enactment.

Some fathers’ swimmers were not active in the child’s conception.

I mean, I'll certainly take it, Mother's Day or not. Also great for my birthday, for Christmas, because he likes my cheesecake...

My husband never initiates or offers the AmEx. He will pick up dinner now and again though.
