Well, I guess you could say that when she was reading her book during those "marital encounters", at least she wasn't busy tweeting her lesbian girlfriend. (/s)
I feel sorry for both her and her husband. Why would a person like this marry a man, and why would she stay with a man who was so far from whatever it is she is looking for and continue for years when she would not "let him kiss" her? Why would her husband stay with a cold and malicious witch long enough for reading a novel to become a habit of hers?
Surprised she didn’t come right out and report her husband to the authorities as a rapist - that would have improved her academic credentials significantly.....
If the story is really true. I would not be surprised to learn that there is not a shred of truth in this entire article.
Maybe he needs her income since she’s a professor and all...
If I was married to this woman, I would begin serious discussions over what brings her to climax and see if I could get her to welcome sexual intimacy again with an eye toward what would please her. Then, work out a quid pro quo - time for her followed by time for him so as to save the marriage.
If she’s unagreeable, I’d seek permission to cheat and if she refused, then I’d divorce.
We need to talk about selfish shrews who look upon men as wallets with legs.
She obviously has a high enough status that her man’s presumably lower status repulses her. Women (usually) marry up. Female hypergamy is real.
I’m not discounting whatever warped, feminist ideas inhabit that brain of hers, however.
The dude undoubtedly picked her because she was reasonably attractive.
She answers her own question and doesn't even know it.
1) I find abhorrent this practice of referring to oneself in the third person.
2) Since when, exactly, is the teaching of "feminist theory" a "male-dominated field"? I'm calling bullshit on that one.
Last year, my teenage son and I chanted in support of women’s reproductive rights at the Women’s March in Washington . . .
That, FRiends and neighbors, is child abuse.
When they got married, two fools met: her for having to ENDURE something she hates, him for being satisfied with it.
Get a divorce!
What a bimbo...He ought to dump her...
No we don't. I don't need to swim in the gutter with socialist activists. Go pound sand.
Why would post here advocating divorce for any reason? Just get lost.
If your wife doesn’t want you
You’re a LOSER. PERIOD
try giving her a ONE HOUR MASSAGE TO START
then get back to me. Kids
I didn’t read the article; I don’t want to. But when a wife is unwilling to have sex with her husband but loves him and wishes to stay married to him, she (and he) often doesn’t know there is an underlying hormonal problem.
Having experimented with doses of all female hormones etc, due to a pituitary tumor and infertility, I know sex drive is nearly 100% hormonal. Why ignore this problem? Hormones are easy to supplement. And a woman doesn’t need testosterone at all to get a great boost by adding the others (though every woman should have a tiny bit of testosterone as well for well being). It is a LIE that bioidentical hormones cause cancer. They actually help prevent it.
The hormones MUST NOT COME BY MOUTH. No pills. That would be a cancer risk. There are many other ways for her to supplement hormones and bypass the digestive system and the direct to liver problem. On the skin, injectibles, vaginally, etc. it could be magic and help any woman enjoy not just sex but also life more.
Here is what I recently found, though, from a couple women I know, married over 15 years each. When I tell them of my experiences with hormones and the absences thereof, they seem interested in my stories, yet even when told this could make them stop rejecting their husbands, THEY REFUSE. I find this cruel. They are interested in thinking about hormones as the basis For sexual attraction and interest and response. But they have some dumb excuse not to try it, like blaming the husband for not being the perfect helper or understander or something. The lack of caring for their spouse is startling and I find it cruel.
They learn hormones could bring them back together sexually BUT THEY WONT TRY IT. It’s a horrible thing to turn against a spouse sexually, unless he has done something unforgivable and in that case, leave him. But this sexual abandonment is just cruel.
If you are that repelled by your husband maybe time to cut him loose. I don’t think a therapist can fix that.
