Cyrena, you might be right to some degree, but "far less fequency" is not likely in my opinion. It's like proposing that only people who have immature sex have it often, while passionate deep love is only infrequent. That would be sad.

I would also propose the possibility that a great sex life can fall apart for a couple when the biological drive difference is too great. At which point someone might misleadingly suggest that the HD persons drive was such ONLY because it was at that point a bad sexual relationship. Putting the cart before the horse.

I have to admit that I politely resent the implication that because I'm interested in quantity, I'm not interested in quality. Nothing could be further from the truth.

As an HD man, the possibility occurs to me, Cyrena, that some women who are LD might view LD men as being more caring and focused on quality, while viewing HD men as uncaring and interested only in quantity. It's all how it looks from your perspective. I can certainly tell you that when I wanted sex again with my wife after having it the day before, I meant it with the highest hopes for fun and love, and I felt it was like a dagger through the heart when she "coldly" replied, "What? We just did it yesterday?" But from her point of view, I was just interested sex, nothing else.

And that's the problem you get in these situations -- the same thing is seen from two very different points of view when your biology is different.

So, if I may politely challenge you Cyrena, what you are suggesting strikes me as the viewpoint of an LD woman. That is, my wife would agree with you -- a caring sexual relationship is all about quality, not frequency. I can just hear her saying it as the perfect reason why I should be having sex at that moment. And if I tell her that, no, it's just not about the sex, she thinks, yeah, right, sure, that's what any man says when he wants sex.
