Your wife's medical condition is not responsible for the cruel behavior you ascribe to her. She is. 100% her choices and her actions. Your interpretation of your vows may require you to martyr yourself, but don't gaslight yourself in the process.
I think that Sonic is a good soul trying to help.

I think it's fine for one partner to refuse kinky requests.

Yeah, time to find an attorney and boot her arse from your life. I don't need some psychopath digging her nails into me if she won't even let me touch her. Had she done that to me, I'd put her in a hotel room.

40 years ago, when I was young, I think I been taught to think that people get into dating and marriage because they want a deep personal sexually satisfying relationship, mutually supportave, life long with someone of the opposite sex.

As I got older, and courtesy of the internet, I found out I was wrong. Imho, lots of women want a man for his money and so she can have children. Some men dont care about the sex as much as someone to take care of the house or just for companionship. Idealism, meet reality. What is sad is how often people actually use and abuse the person they claimed to love.

My only advise to people is try to mate with someone who actually loves you. How to do that, I have no idea. Lots of people lie and pretend a lot. Imho, theres no way of knowing if the person you thought you married is really that person.

Or, continue to live as they do, but with Sub taking responsibility for whatever part he may have played in their situation, but only that part. Then whether his wife takes responsibility for her part or not, maybe Sub can find some peace in what appears to be a painful situation.

Don't box above your weight class for starters. If you see two people that don't match, which is usually a smoking hot woman with a "meh" dude, there could be trouble ahead.

Especially in CA where tying the knot means she gets 1/2 regardless what happens next. (There are rare exceptions) Plan accordingly.

There would have to be a solid reason to not bump bellies.

Physical intimacy is paramount to a romantic relationship.
