So true! Hot looks don't always translate to hot in bed. We had a poll once where a majority of the guys said they'd prefer plain looks but hot in bed vs. hot looks but a dud in bed. But how many of that first group of guys would actually date plain or average or sub-average women? Santa isn't going to bring you a sex goddess disguised as a plain Jane. You have to go out and find her. And you need to have your priorities straight.

There's a rising trend of sexless marriages in America, of which many are in denial.

If you're in one, male or female, you need to get out of it asap.

That's why looks are not very high on my list, what she is willing to do in bed and how often is at the VERY top. Women who are horny and like sex wont mind when you bring it up early and often. If they get weird or play coy or just shut you out when you bring it up then you will know in a not so subtle way.

The sad thing is you generally have to go to average or sub average. Such is life. The reason you cant marry them is because there are a large number of women who will pretend to like things in bed and even do them a lot until they get a ring then they just want plain sex, nope not going down that road again.

for the same reason you dont see the swimming pool guy much after you prepay for the construction.
i was only celibate once in my life, when married.
first time i had sex after divorce i was so angry. dont get me wrong it was great. its just that i realized i wasted 17 years of my life on a jerk who did not have sex with me.

The problem is divorce for a man can literally make him homeless or living hand to mouth for most of his life. Guys need to make radical changes in the way they do things otherwise its going to get worse.

It goes a bit deeper than just hormones with her.

If they had known in the first place that their girlfriends didn't like sex, they wouldn't have married them.

Marriages oftentimes start out with a lot of sex but them over time it dwindles.

And other times, they start out by having lots of sex with their SO during the dating phase but stop the sex once they're married.

In other words, I don't think that many men intentionally marry women who they know don't like sex.

I think that men's egos get stroked when they have a pretty girl in their bed or working on their little soldier. Their egos will NEVER allow them to believe that their "hot" girlfriend does not enjoy or even really want to have sex with them but do so out of obligation...girlfriend duty. My friends and I have had countless conversations about it. Once the ink is dry on the marriage license and a kid (or 2) is birthed there really is not need to keep up the charade.

Of course, that's why you either need to protect your assets prior to marriage or don't get married at all.

It doesn't matter if the girl is hot or not, a hot or a not so hot woman can deny their husbands sex.

I don't think men should be criticized for wanting a hot wife.

Once again, people conceal their true intentions during the dating phase a lot.
