the women actually know what they are doing in bed

As the husband I am just going to stop trying to imitate because she’s so angry all the time and it was me initiating all the time anyway. I know that’s an avoidance tactic, but Jesus Christ things are grim right now.
I just want household peace, to not be insulted and criticized for everything I do all the time (even though I’ve got a good job, do half the chores, and kids stuff, and handle so much else). She is take it or leave it or responsive desire.
Marriage fking sucks.
To the divorced folks out there. How is it? For men, specifically.

I am here to offer some hope that things can improve. I was one of those people on this board who was convinced a dead bedroom was irreversible.
Did something else change? Kids get older? Less stress at work? Just more time to relax?
It became a big point of contention and is now a lot better for us, but it was a “big deal” and there was a lot of discussion/navigating the difference. I have a very high libido and want it almost every day, he thinks that’s insane.
Not the pp. We also have a libido imbalance. We’re in our 50s with grown children and jobs, both out of the house. We’re having intense sex 2 to 3 times per week. We have it a variety of ways, sometimes with role playing. She’s vocal and reaches orgasm fairly fast. She gets into it.
Despite being seemingly satisfied sexually, she has hardly any underlying sex drive. The next day she can take it or leave it, whereas I always want it. She says I have to initiate.
Is anyone else like this? Sexually responsive but not necessarily sexually driven.
If you're in your 50s and having sex like that 2-3 times per week she has an outstanding libido relative to other women her age.
It seems many women go beyond just not needing sex - they put effort into avoiding it.
Yea because have you seen the majority of 50 year old men? Would you want to have sex with them??
50yo men are way better shape than 50yo women.
Men age like wine. Women age like milk.
Hardly the case around here. 50 yo women spend a couple hours a day @ Pilates and are ripped with nice hair and skin. 50 yo men have no hair and dad bods

I’m basically giving up trying because I’m so tired of being rejected.
