The old story of mismatched sex drives and expectations, eh? There are guys who are comfortable with sex 2 to 4 times per day. We even have a name for them.
Addicts.
There was an extensive study of sexual frequency carried out in the UK, which was reported on in The Times which found that a surprising 18% of adults do not have sex at all! Shocking considering that sex is the one thing pretty much every guy lies about.
As for frequency, well, everyone is different, though the study suggests that once a month to once a year is far more common than once a day to once a week. So 2 to 4 times a week is already putting you ahead of a good 90% of the population.
One factor she may not be considering is what is informally known as the three year rule, a rule of thumb for couples in a relationship. Sexual frequency roughly halves for every three years the couple is together. It is a little bit sad when you start wistfully looking back at how it used to be, but it is also normal.
Hope this has been of some small service.
Real life happens to us all. Careers. Mortgage. Kids definitely change your life. It's not all about you anymore. We have to make 'special just us' time - our reason for being... Don't ever let it get to once a year!
i'm confused, are we supposed to feel for the guy gettin it 2-4 weekly? interesting stat on the 3 year rule though, great research.
Over the past few weeks with several questions here on GuySpeak, I am thinking that maybe, contrary to popular belief, women have more sexual drive than men? Maybe men are better at "thinking" and "fantasizing" but when it comes to actual performance, it's the women who can really deliver. Ahehehe. Just a thought.
Another rule every guy knows:
A woman is never so keen as when she has just come.
It can be hard to keep up. (pun intended)
Personally I think age, diet, attraction, chemistry...wow...the list goes on and on...make up libido and chemistry! Two months ago I would have even argued the whole power, let alone existence of chemistry...However, I am in my early 40's and just started dating an older man (he's just shy of 50) and frankly, after being with younger guys since I was 25.. let me just say, wow...WOW!! Not a day goes by that he doesn't "pleasantly" surprise me both in and out of the bedroom! The moral to my story...stereotypes are just that..stereotypes and are usually more often than not derived out of a one-sided, biased situation...not actual research!
