For what it is worth, of course there is no "magic number" but some experts and this article suggests The "magic number" if there is one is a happy couple will be usually having sex about 3 to 4 times per week. 2.5 average And once a week for busy couples is not too shabby and hopeful. Why am I posting this in the SM Issues - Well "This is not that" Black cannot exist without white like night cannot exist without day, and so on. www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3536424/How-times-week-REALLY-having-sex.html

I speculate that, rather than counting roots one DID have, it might be far more accurate to count the roots you didn't have over a year.
This would be achieved - for blokes - by every time you wanted a root but got knocked back, you twanged off and shot into a container of some sort.
At the end of the 12 months, you could count up / measure the volume, divide that by 6ml (the average amount of blow in an ejaculation) and there you'd have your figure of "roots you should have had" for the year.
A beer can in my jurisdiction holds 375ml. 375ml divided by 6ml - 62.5 shoots per year. Your rate of "roots you should have had" = 62.5 per annum. The more ambitious among the membership might set a target of filling a 1.25ltr bottle, and the real heavy hitters might go the 40 gallon drum option
And you could sell the contents of the can to the local mayonnaise factory after.

"One of the main reasons why couples stop having sex isn’t because their relationship has gone sour or they don’t fancy their partners, it’s because they’re so close, the relationship has stopped being sexual."
Huh? So they are so close they are now beyond sex? This doesn't compute. Seriously doesn't compute.

Quality of the sex is a much harder to measure but hat more important indicators then quality..

"If you’re happy with the brother/sister dynamic, fine. If you’re not, simply start by having sex once a week whether you feel like it or not."
Easier said than done.

"One of the main reasons why couples stop having sex isn’t because their relationship has gone sour or they don’t fancy their partners, it’s because they’re so close, the relationship has stopped being sexual." - end quote.
Ah yes, the old rising above such things, and ascending to a higher plane, far beyond the reach of the average Joe/Joette where the purity of spirit transcends that of earthly desire and mortal needs, and propels one into the astral world of total serenity and total insight into the soul of the cosmos.
Well, it sure reads better than - "I'd sooner blob on the couch and binge watch original Star Trek episodes than root you".

This was interesting: "One in four couples over 50 don’t have any sex at all.But far from complaining about it, the couples surveyed by Gransnet (634 users aged 51 to 58) said they felt extremely happy and satisfied in their sexless relationships with only 65 per cent rating sex as important.
There’s an important caveat here: this holds true when both partners are happy not having sex, not when just one person decides to take sex off the table.But if you’ve both had an honest conversation and decided it’s simply not something you value any longer, sex doesn’t appear to be the ‘must have’ factor for a happy relationship that experts traditionally believed. This can also be the case for couples under 50, who both have low or no sexual drive, and are happy not to have it."

This is nonsensical BS. "I think sex is important but I'm extremely satisfied with my celibate relationship" ?

I will happily stick to my cave man ways and enjoy great sex than become transcendently haphephobic. Yeah, this simple mind had to look that word up. And nobody says you can't bing watch Star Trek AND root, baza!

Huh? So they are so close they are now beyond sex? This doesn't compute. Seriously doesn't compute. I believe we have seen this "logic" on here time and time again, Once that ring is on the finger, no need to date anymore. No need to win that persons love, no need to impress them anymore. You can now be your true lazy self (whatever that is!). Both partners get complacent and tied up with "life". So now just going through "life" together is considered "close". This reads like it came straight from page one of the "101 Survivors Manual for Refusers, Rejectors, Controllers, and Greysexualls"

None of that mumbo jumbo even really matters, though. All that matters is the last sentence: "Are you both happy with the amount of sex you are having?" If the answer is yes, you are not here on this board.

What's also interesting about your observation, is how a ultra "christian" conservative, far right wing, can be indoctrinated with sex negativity.
