They are defining “sexless” as less than four times per year.
“It’s become a shorter amount of time in which [couples] become sexless,” believes San Francisco-based sex therapist Celeste Hirschman, who’s been seeing clients for about 20 years. Anecdotally, she used to see it take around 10 to 15 years for couples to stop having sex with each other. “Now, it’s maybe taking three to five,” she says.
On of the “experts” is saying that “stress” is an issue. I say bullshit. Stress is not any worse for the Millenial generation than it was for any previous generation. They claim that Millenials are workaholics. I say bullshit again.
I do remember something about generational differences in testosterone levels. Not sure if it is true.
I think it is up to us pre-Millenial generations to make this up by showing the Millienials how to have sex. Any of you Millenial female types want to be first? Give me a shout!
I’m a Boomer, and still have a decent sex drive. My lovely bride, past menopause, no longer has much interest, so I would be willing to help out any Millennial woman with needs. The Generation Z crowd is too young for their drive to fade, but it will. These younger generations worry about too many things that they should not, lack the ability to communicate face to face, and struggle with dealing with their emotions, far more so than the Boomers ever did. We had the Cold War to worry about, so all other worries paled in comparison. We talked face to face, and sharing emotions, even among men, was not that uncommon. We did not have technology to hide behind, and it is that hiding that is causing most of the problems with the young.
There’s no point in being married if your wife is frigid. You’re nothing but roommates if there’s no love.
