But don't you remember all those convos we had about your H and his religion... and given how deep his beliefs/convictions were, he was probably suppressing his natural body urges much like a priest must do?
So, I get what you are saying. I do. But my point is that there is/was an emotional component to him that was most definitely working against his natural male drive. He fought it.
Now... I get what you are saying about LDWs. I think there are real physical things happening to a woman to lower her drive, especially after childbirth (so she doesn't get pregnant again), there is PPD, lactation... jesus, we women have so many hormonal issues, it's a wonder that we EVER experience a true physical urge for sex.
But like you said... at some point on some thread... a woman's emotions will feed her sex drive... I think that's where it all starts with a woman. If something is out of whack with the emotions, something is probably out of whack with the sex (and vice-versa, barring true medical complications).
So... what was our original point? Oh. LDH and the emotional efforts he must make to avoid sex. Yes. Gotcha. Julie and Karen made profound remarks, in my mind. Do their H's feel overwhelmed by their emotional needs? Seems to be where the crux of their problems are... and that's emotional... which was my original point...?????
