We've kicked it back up a notch lately - about 3 times/week.

Thanks to those who voted.

I am unmarried but I've been thinking a lot about how important it is to keep up the flirting and sexual tension in a marriage and not allowing one partner to have more control over when/where you have sex than the other.

I voted 3-5... although it can vary from significantly less to more, depending on a ton of factors

I think it is very important to have both couples engaged in the process and not have one who is always passive and just "going through the motions" to be a good spouse.

I'd answer but don't know how to. Average over the life of the marriage? All marriages? Over the past year? It's really, really changed for us in the past couple years, due mainly to some medical issues. And it's always been set by my partners. I'm always game.

One thing I've noticed in three marriages is that the frequency always goes down over the years. Even with my late wife, which was still 5-6 times a week at the end, it had gone down from... more than that. A friend told me, when I married my first wife centuries ago, that I should put a penny in a jar each time we made whoopie the first year, then take a penny out of it each time after the first year. He said I'd never run out of money. It was true for that marriage.

What do you mean by control?
