Security 'bad news for sex drive'
BBC News ^ | 14APR2014 | BBC Staff Writer

A woman's sex drive begins to plummet once she is in a secure relationship, according to research.

Researchers from Germany found that four years into a relationship, less than half of 30-year-old women wanted regular sex.

Conversely, the team found a man's libido remained the same regardless of how long he had been in a relationship.

I agree 100%. Jewelry works too, but not like flowers. There's something about spending big money on something as useless as flowers that keeps a woman going, especially if you send them to her job.

She instantly becomes the envy of the office, the center of attention. I can't tell you what it does to the other husbands that evening, but I know what it does for me....

Never happened ... or I married a nymph. Actually an Angel is a better and closer description of the truth.

Sex drive? What’s the storage capacity on it?

From personal experience, age has no bearing on it either. My buddy is coming over for lunch tomorrow. He lives in Sac. My son goes to Sac State.

I grew chicken of the other men. Cluck ... Cluck ... am Hen Pecked. Wife works in a nearly total female environment. Two or three men on her floor. I do send her to the office with my cooking but she has strict instructions to tell the ladies she works with, that she was the cook. Sent flowers a few times but ladies talk to one another and then go home to their husbands and talk some more. I was starting to get a reputation that the ladies’ husbands found offensive. Was mentioned a few time and for a few times I blew the conversations off. There are nearly fifty women working on that floor and I have no desire to fend off fifty guys out for blood. Now on a good day would have once considered it but with age come wisdom enough to hopefully keep one alive for another day and another load of laundry and wash the dishes.

“Sex drive? What’s the storage capacity on it?”

I don’t know, but it’s measured in bits.

Then give them irregular sex, right?"

Check those birth control pills, they can really interfere with a woman’s sex drive.

That study is either a load of doo-doo... Or I am abby-normal and my husband is lucky.

First love at age 13 (1972). Started dating (again) New Year’s 1976. Married 1979. My heart still jumps into my throat when I hear his voice.
