"Tonight's the night!"
I was wondering when someone would get around to posting this one...
"Tonight's the night!"
Maybe 60Hz?
Gracious me. That would be horrible. Even ELF would be a bit much.
I answered "weekly", and when I asked DW what she would have answered she answered "twice weekly"....I think she's counting the times I suggest it but get a "request denied" answer.
Those are interesting conversations, BTW..."No means NO."
"Does No mean ask me again in 20 minutes?"
"No. No means No"
"What does "maybe later" mean?
"Maybe later means NO"...or it might mean "Maybe later. In the week. Or it might mean maybe later in the month, or later in the summer."
It's very confusing to me.
I've read "The Art of the Deal" and I was a hell of a negotiator at work. However, I think the book "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" might be a more useful book to read when trying to understand and deal with a spouse. Took me a while to figure that out.

Reference your username for what your DW is probably trying to nicely communicate.
You have women figured out? And you got the answers from a book? Right........
A happy ending?
I recall an experience my boss once told me back in the '80's. He had been in a combat zone in Viet Nam and had not experience any carnal activity for a while. The first chance of R&R back to Saigon, he hooked up with a member of the fairer sex, and since it had been a while, he thought his performance was no less than spectacular. As the fireworks was going off in his mind, he glanced at his partner, who was peacefully content laying there eating an apple! His vision of his "studliness" vanished, he got up and left, and he said he never went again to those "Houses of the Rising Sun".
He was surprised? That a prostitute treated him as a piece of meat?
I laughed out loud so many times while I read this thread. You folks are funny as hell.
Those of you who voted "daily" ....
What constitutes completion?
Being retired for 17 years, we tend to do it on special occasions. My anniversaries and hers, birthdays of ourselves and other relatives, RMD dates, Valentine's but not Thanksgiving!
But that is not a strict rule. Sometimes it is accidentally picking up the KY jelly instead of toothpaste!
I am thinking that maybe those who have switched partners mid-life and those who got married later in life maybe do it more frequently than those of us who have been with the same person for eons. Will ponder how to put this into a poll...
If they married someone younger, it's a pretty good bet!
Incidentally, I did not know people still say "do it" instead of "have sex." I think the last time I heard that phrase was in early college years. The slogan "Just Do It" was a snicker, of course.
I've always thought the phrases of "bumping uglies" or "doing the nasty" were kind of unusual but accurate euphemisms.
My parents never had sex.
My parents never had sex.
No one EVER wants to think about their parents having sex...
in my late 30's and through my 40's i had zero sex due to my wife's long term illness. After she passed away and i met another widower it was sheer craziness for a couple of years. Then as things settled down we do not let it go a week in-between rendezvous. However, on "vacation" trips we ramp it back up. We have a policy of "breaking in" new rental houses. Next trip is to mexico and we have four rentals houses. If you want i'll report back on our progress.
