" Sometimes women write in asking me for advice about their lower-libido boyfriends. I always tell them to leave, because the situation will only worsen over time. The issue is that many women do not recognize low libido for what it truly is. If you are a woman who thrives on sex and physical touch, do not marry a man who does any of the following during dating: Shrinks away from your touch, ever Doesn’t want sex when stressed (life will only get more stressful over time) Makes fun of sex or your need for sex, as in this article about women who do this to men Punishes you even once by withholding physical affection Does not hug or kiss you frequently Doesn’t give massages Has poor hygiene (and/or doesn’t respond to you telling him how to improve hygiene); this means he doesn’t care if you enjoy being physically close to him Has hangups about sex (read this) Equates sex with respect, e.g., says things like “I wouldn’t have sex on the first date if I really respected a woman” or “I would never marry a woman who had sex with more than X men“ Doesn’t ensure you orgasm in every encounter (if you want to)" www.drpsychmom.com/2022/01/06/do-not-marry-a-man-who-turns-down-sex/?fbclid=IwAR0FspkWLCNPkvNkbWFB_OnB3Ds_PNKkBGQZhwUAG85n1_0QcBEfRsWTbmw#.YeBxLt8yyws.facebook

I think this is pretty sound advice for those in the "getting to know you" phase of a relationship.
Of course in the ILIASM world, one is past that phase and the sexual mis-match is well entrenched as the normal situation.
Getting out of a sexually mis-matched boy/girlfriend situation is difficult (but way easier than getting out of a sexually mis-matched marriage)
Getting out of a sexually mis-matched husband/wife situation is probably 10 times more difficult.

Equates sex with respect, e.g., says things like “I wouldn’t have sex on the first date if I really respected a woman”
I fit in this category because on first dates how does one avoid "bat shit crazy men or women" or any of the many STIs? I need to know a person before I feel comfortable with having sex.
Has hangups about sex. Thank to the religious and social conditioning training, growing up that women do not like sex all that much so limit your sexual needs to a minimum.
This was pre-forum. So now that I have it all worked out mentally, I am still in a SM.

Handy: "I fit in this category because on first dates how does one avoid "bat shit crazy men or women" or any of the many STIs? I need to know a person before I feel comfortable with having sex."
Handy, what you said isn't the same as: "Equates sex with respect, e.g., says things like “I wouldn’t have sex on the first date if I really respected a woman." Not having sex on a first date because of "respecting" a woman indicates that such a man thinks that having sex with a woman is somehow showing a lack of respect for her. The kind of man who says things like that probably thinks that "good" women aren't into sex. That's really different from delaying sex until one gets to know someone.

OK, I see the difference.
Today I was wondering about why or when people start to have sex. There are so many factors involved in the decision. There has to be more than just sex drive and opportunity. And predicting future sex drive is almost an impossibility.

Handy, I was thinking the same thing. It could have been worded a bit better. Thank you, northstarmom, for making good sense of it.

By the time we figure this out, we'll be dead. 😢

I think the original post applies to men and women. I promised myself when I was out of my SM that in any new relationship, I will accept that we don’t always necessarily get sex exactly when we want it but if I am knocked back several times in a row or knocked back with any level of consistency, off i fuck.
