That lucky dog!

...feel sorry for them.
Yuck! Where's the Love ??

She's often tired or not feeling good about herself. She often gives a nonverbal answer that he takes as a no--is she asleep when he asks?

So, here's the real question: for her husband, is sex about him or them both? His wife has body image issues (feels gross, etc.), so it doesn't sound like he is doing anything to help her feel better about herself, instead just focusing on himself. Methinks she'd say yes more if he worked on making her feel like the most sexy, beautiful woman in the world and didn't wait until she was half-asleep to ask.

They're 20 minutes early, and that's enough time to both get theirs, *and* get ready again?

What I think is this, both parties are behaving like assholes. He apparently believes he's entitled to on-demand sex-- apparently by virtue of marriage--she makes public his ridiculous and pathetic attempt to demonstrate it.

We know nothing else about these people.

On the topic of sexual entitlement itself, even marriage doesn't guarantee anyone sex, nobody is entitled to 'getting it' and the couple obviously needs a little help in their marriage, one way or the other.

As far as locker room talk-- Ick. The idea of Discussing how often you're getting laid, with who, and what particular acts to reinforce manliness by disrespecting the acts and the women (in hetero arrangements) or something---grosses me the fuck out.

I loved the Louis CK skit and the boxes idea posted by two women, for different reasons.

I've heard the locker room kind of talk and tore into guys and embarrassed them, but I know the genre. It's been in the back of my mind forever, expecting it to be what men think, all those stupid things.

Many men were not brought up that way but to get along in groups they went with it to escape being labeled gay. By the time a couple has paired off, they see the other as real humans, individuals, and value the gift.
