  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm really shocked to hear that a man doesn't like lube. It's been our saving grace for 'quickies' and hubby and I both love it. Is there any reason in specific that he doesn't like lube? That's about the only solution I know of to your problem.

I think foreplay is necessary and a part of sex and with cutting that out part of the experience is lost. I don't see the point in making an effort to cut it out so that it can be called three times a day instead of two. The whole lovemaking experience should not be about penetration only. Blah to this whole idea.

I personally think that your husband should think about you (and not just about himself) and how you feel. Have you spoken to him about the way you feel, that you do not wish to have that much sex? A husband should be concerned about his wife's feelings...

I agree, twice a day!! Most married couples I know would settle for every other day!

I also agree with Leanna. Making love is exactly that, it's not just about penetration, foreplay is incorrectly named in my opinion - it's not about 'PLAYing' beFORE' the actual act, it IS love making as much as the final penetration.

If I remember correctly, you were having problems with pain in this area a few months back - obviously you have worked through this if you are making love this regularly. Could it be that your body just doesn't respond to that much sex??

Personally I don't like lube, because my body tells me when I am ready for sex, I wouldn't want to do it artificially if I could help it. I'm sure as I get older and hormones change so will I, but for now I would rather be as natural as possible.

There are lots of different kinds of sex. I'm talking about married sex in a Christian marriage. Sometimes it takes a long time. Sometimes it's a quickie. Sometimes you laugh the whole time. Sometimes you cry. Sometimes he initiates; sometimes you do. Sometimes you do particular things that you don't do the next time, ad nauseum...

So, negotiate. If you don't want long, seductive sex every time, say so. Say it someday when you are not in the bedroom and work out what you can both happily live with. "If we have long seductive sex once a day, any other times will be "quickies." Or maybe it's only the third time that needs to be the quickie... or you alternate days or whatever you are both comfortable with.

He has a right to your body and you have a right to his. He may not like lube, but your body is also involved here so the use of lube needs to be discussed not decided unilaterally. Just as it does with every other aspect of a sexual relationship.

He should be grateful he has the ability to contemplate three times a day!

Me, I am lucky to manage twice a day and then I am like a major league pitcher and need several days' rest :o

I'd agree with some of the women who've already posted - sex shouldn't always be about penetration - even for a man (thinking of traditional stereotypes here!). Sometimes, IMO, sex shouldn't even necessarily result in penetration, but that's just me and I'm not Catholic ;)

I would say that by natural apetite I'd only go about every day or two. He respects if I'm not in the mood, but by the same token I really try to satisfy him as well. Before we were married he was all "7 times a day!"... still haven't made that goal even one day yet LOL. Though I'm pretty sure he still wants that even if it might not be practical. I think my body is just not interested in more than once or twice a day so it's a matter of being physically available to him beyond that (although he'd really like to feel able to seduce me more than that, and he tries). Someone mentioned mentally preparing myself, but... somehow I need more than just thinking about sex to get me in the mood, I dunno that just doesn't do it for me.

When he wants it, he wants penetration, so that's kinda the issue. I think succeeding at quickies would probably be the best solution.

LOL! :D Yeah, well, it's a whole lot easier for guys. :)

Sorry I don't have any advice for quickies other than lube. And there are some really fun lubes...

Where did you get that from?? I didn't see anyone say that. I know that isn't true for me, if I am neglected then I wonder what is wrong.
