A very interesting article in the Sunday, September 21, 2008 Parade Magazine.

Under the topic of sex the report indicated that 31 percent of married people have sex less than once a month.

I simply can not believe this statistic. What do others here at LPSG think?

When things such as jobs, stress, children and illness come about, yes sex falls to the way side. With the aging population of peoples parents and the added stress of jobs and raising children, it's no wonder that rates of sex drops. There is just other things to put your mind to other than sex.

I believe it. I don't understand it, but I believe it. Just look at how many people are very out of shape.

In the words of Stewie Griffin...

"PARADE??? You read Parade Magazine?!?!"

LOL....yes, the magazine which celebrates mediocrity in America written at the 8th grade comprehension level like USA Today. I'd take any article in there with a grain of salt. Not a very high caliber audience it's targeting - the watered down Enquirer Magazine crowd, one level above Teen Beat.

Actually, I'm surprised it's not higher given all the people who cheat. Then there are those who are asexual or 'discover' a new sexual preference whilst married and basically shun their spouse.


Maybe 31% of the married people are old?
:lmao: I don't know why but this response made me laugh.

I became asexual while married to my husband.
I desired no one, least of all him.
The sight of him or even the mere thought of him being naked make me feel sickened.
I could see a "desireable" man on the street and not give him a second glance and feel like spitting on him if he so much as raised an eyebrow and smiled at me.
I was pleased when he found a mistress and relived me of the hellish duty of servicing him.

I agree with the earlier poster who said "once in a season change." Seriously. I jerk off at least five times a week, sometimes get blowjobs at the sauna from other married guys who have all found our own entertainment -- wife simply shows no interest in sex, is massively overweight and leaves me to figure it out on my own.

Very sad, but the way it is.

Believe the statistics. Seems like many women have their kids, and they pretty much turn their sex drive completely off.
