Understanding Your Husband's Sexual Needs
Focus on the Family ^ | 8-13-10 | Juli Slattery

Posted on 08/13/2010 9:26:35 AM PDT by Controlling Legal Authority

Author Robert Byrne once quipped, "Anyone who believes that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach flunked geography." This humorous statement hits home with what any adult with a brain knows: Sex is very, very important to men. Research consistently shows that between 80 and 90 percent of men view sex as the most important aspect of their marriage. When asked what one thing they would like to change in their marriages, they wish that their wives would be more interested in sex and more willing to initiate physical intimacy.

The body of the article talks about the world's oldest profession. It reminds me of a joke my Dad once told me about a physicist, doctor and an economist arguing with the hooker that their professions were really older.

Said the doctor, the Bible tells us that God took a rib from Adam to create Eve. That's a form of surgery which indicates God was well-schooled in medical science and, thus, makes us an older profession.

Well, says the physicist, before he did that, doesn't the Bible talk about forming the world from chaos? That's physics and, so we have you beat.

Chimed in the economist, "Who do you think created the chaos?"

I noticed that statement too and thought it sort of ridiculous. We could all be in burqas and it wouldn't be on a man's mind any more or any less.

I am sure you can find a study to post on that topic also. In fact I recall reading a book written by a sex therapist on refusing husbands.

Just so fellows know. Flirting, attention, and caresses go a long way to a man getting what he wants. Not talking to a lady, then at bedtime just grabbing turns off the sex button faster than anything. I remember hearing something about a man is like a microwave, but a woman is like a slowcooker.

Okay....that was my wordy ping to myself.

Amen sista.

I might add a little more mopping, a little more cooking helps too.

There is nothing sexier than a man mopping the floor and cooking.

bow chica wow wow. Needs are taken care of.

Forcible rape is not the same as intimate relations with the woman you love.

Agree, but the media and academia tells everyone we love it.

That is one of the best quotes from the article. A woman can say “I love you and thank you for all your hard work” all day long, but if she does not take care of his physical needs, she may as well be thanking hired help, for all it’s worth. A girl friend of mine says the advice she would give to women is to show a man you love him, give him a....(you can fill in the blank from there, since I don’t want the mods to get upset with my choice of wording after this).

Well they still need a good meal but yes I’d say most marriages fail when women no longer want anything to do with their husband. It’s a shame so many of us do that.

I think wives should read up on what the so called Girl Friend Experience is and apply it at home. Otherwise men will wander off and find it elsewhere.
