    Maureen McGrath talks about the reasons for sexless marriages and gives her audience some solutions. But she won’t state a very obvious way to prevent this problem: DON’T GET MARRIED.

    "I saw that there comes a point, in the defeat of any man of virtue, when his own consent is needed for evil to win-and that no manner of injury done to him by others can succeed if he chooses to withhold his consent. I saw that I could put an end to your outrages by pronouncing a single word in my mind. I pronounced it. The word was ‘No.’" (Atlas Shrugged)

    Its bad enough with women that the juice is just no longer the squeeze.

    Sometimes you squeeze and you don’t get anything. LOL.

    All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.

    It’s a shame we don’t all have chocolate dicks that ejaculate money.

    If you’re a member of this site you already know how each party views sex and what they gain from it.

    Spolier alert the man’s gain is measured in seconds of chemical release, and the woman’s gain in decades of support and slavery.

    20% doesn’t factor married men getting it outside the marital bed.

    Another bulls~~~ statistic. It’s far higher than that, every family member, friend and colleague I ever spoke to says zero or complete lack of sex.

    Whatever the true figure we all know that EVERY marriage eventually becomes sexless, followed by the divorce rape.

    STOP. THE. F~~~. MARRYING.

    Most likely wrong solutions for the wrong problem.

    A man shouldn't make his life's objective to be on the side of the majority, but to avoid finding himself in the ranks of the insane. (Marcus Aurelius)

    Married people are still having sex just not necessarily with each other.

    In 15 year relationship (13 married): Sex has been once or twice a year for the last 6 years or more. The only other sex I had was with Rosie Palms but otherwise remained faithful. My wife was never “In the mood” and I stopped asking and moved into my Man-Cave). It started with her sexting five years ago and then she went on to ongoing affairs. After the invention of the smartphone, I wouldn’t recommend marriage to my worst enemy.

    I know that we haven’t had sex in well over a year, and if you go back even five years, we’ve maybe had sex three times in that span. My wife is auditioning for the new show “Laziest Person Alive”, and thus sex is off limits. To be fair, she’ll sometimes mention that we should have sex, but then she’ll note how bad of a headache she has, or how she doesn’t fee good, or whatever.

    Based on what I hear from friends, we’re not alone. Saw a text to my wife from a friend regarding how the best favor her husband can give her is to take a year off from sex – her husband is a great guy and treat her great.

    As others have said, NEVER GET MARRIED. The sex will end, but the misery of watching your wife try to spend you into the poorhouse, nagging you to death about piddly crap, dealing with her family (in my case, her drama queen sister), and watching her try to match your weight (I’m around 220 at 6’2″, and wife is around 5’6″ and has to be 185-190 lbs) isn’t worth it.

    I don’t know where they get that 20% stat from. From the marriages that I am personally aware of the sexless rate is an average of 98%…

    20% of marriages may be having sex.

    I fixed it.

    I’ll agree with the 98%, even if you restrict to those under 60. I’d bet that if I polled my friends, less than 10% are having sex more than a few times a year and don’t like it. If I polled my wife’s friends, most if not all are not having sex and they’re happy as clams.

    This is actually a little bit of a surprise to me. Other than the sex embargo mentioned in my intro I can’t think of a time other than post child delivery that it’s been more than a month.

    It’s no solution to every other problem with marriage, but I mentioned more than once that my every other day requirement is nonnegotiable.

    We’ll see if she can keep up through menopause… Or I can easily live on half.

    Through one female association I now know of two separate men who picked up a 21 year old to replace the sexless wife. Curiously enough, the sexless wife is now banging the husband again and sends him back to live with the new bimbo.

    Sexless marriage=flawless victory. Not ever, no way, no how, and never again. Even the one who expects the other shoe to drop knows better than to play games with me. I’m patient and heartless. USFSPA sets the rules for her payout. When doesn’t matter now.

    I failed to realize in my youth that I was the prize. I was going to work. I was going to earn. Little did I realize that due to feminism, that no longer meant I had to share. Road soon, Desert after.
