When Your Man Doesn't Want Your Sex

When Your Man Doesn't Want Your Sex

filed under: love & sex

20 million marriages are sexless--no, it's not just yours.

Holy matrimony! Dudes don't want to do the deed? According to the NY Post, a recent study done by New York City sexologist and author Bob Berkowitz and his writer wife, Susan Yager-Berkowitz, finds that two out three men polled aren't into it because their wives don't excite them. Ouch! What's the matter guys, hairy legs and flannel don't get your engine revving?

Now, we at Mom•Logic like to joke about the lack of sleep, sex, and smooth legs as much as the next gal--but when it comes to saving our marriages, we say, hit the sack! It doesn't take a sex scientist to see that if you're not connecting physically, the rest will fall apart soon after. But don't take it from us--even Mom•Logic senior writer/producer Julie Taylor, co-author of How to Be a Dominant Diva, says just do it! "Sometimes the only way to get in the mood is to have sex even when you don't feel like it. Once the juices start flowing, the passion will kick in." Julie says that attempting to have sex at least once a week will boost your physical and emotional bond.

loveless in Vancouver, I hate to say this but, men are very sexual. Do you think that a man is going to actually tell you hes having sex with someone else? You say you believe him. (hes not having sex with someone else). You did not really specify much. Are you happy? How old is he? has there been medical or psychological problems. You dont have to stay out all night to fool around, I hope for your sake hes not fooling you. If hes not fooling around it seems as though the love for you has vanished. you really need to talk to him in a calm manor and not be in denial. sometimes we hear and believe what we want in order not to be hurt. But aren’t you hurting more by not getting what you need from your marriage. Not having sex with your husband or wife is not normal.

My boyfriend of 2 years and the father of my 7 mo. daughter seems to have lost complete interest in sex. But I can’t help but remember (and fantasize over) how he USED to be when we first got together. We did it every single night and did it ALL too. Now, when I try to talk to him about the lacking and bring up the past behaviours, he denies that he was ever like that to begin with. I feel his issue with me is that I am not as tight as he would like me to be, but how can I fix that? I know about the Kegel exercises, but they are extremely uncomfortable for me, so what other options do I have? I feel hopeless.
