You noticed that, too, eh?

[metmom]

Maybe it's time again to drag this out. It's been a while since it's been needed.

If you keep a race horse couped up in a barn 29 days a month, then on 30th day let him out on the track and let him run he will last about 45 seconds then fall over huffing and puffing.

Well you could think of masturbation and porn as a sexual gymnasium.

[metmom]

It’s the men that run that culture.

Who’s to blame there?

Not the women who get killed in honor killings or who get stoned for the crime of being raped.

I’d say *Nice try* but it’s not. It’s disgusting that you blame women for men’s bad actions and decisions.

It’s the same ole, same ole.

Adam to God: “It’s this woman you gave me. It’s her fault. She made me do it.”

Nothing has changed in thousands of years.

[central_va]

It’s the men that run that culture.

LOL, If men ran the culture like you say there would be one faggot out of the closet right now. Every white male in every movie, commercial and tv show is a bad ,stupid person unless he is gay. LMN and lifetime channels are devoted to showiunf stories about f-ed up men. LMN=Loser Men Network

[central_va]

Anyway you didn’t address male performance issues due to lack of “exercise”. It is a real issue so don’t poo poo it.

[2nd amendment mama]

Yeah....me thinks he doth protest too loudly!!!

[JCBreckenridge]

I’m single so I’m not quite sure how it ‘hits too close to home for me’. :)

Two, I’ve gotten *quite* a few PMs thanking me, so obviously I’m saying something that needs to be said.

Do I think that this wife here is not having sex with her husband? I don’t know. The article does not say. Do I think it’s a distinct possibility? Absolutely.

Everyone here excoriates the husband but there are other possibilities that need to be considered. The husband is responsible for his actions. Whether the wife is contributing or not, is something we can’t tell from the information provided.

Reread what I actually posted and see if I ‘assign all the blame to the wife’. I do not. What seems to get people’s goat is that I point out that there’s two people involved here and that maybe, just maybe the wife is contributing to the problem too.

[JCBreckenridge]

She also never answered the question, “do you believe a wife has a duty to her husband to have sex on a regular basis.”

crickets.

[central_va]

Because it is all the man’s fault. Don’t you see....

[JCBreckenridge]

Perhaps my argument hits too close to home for her. ;)

[central_va]

Unfortunately if these porno crusaders keep this up men will switch to the real thing or start dumping serious money at titty bars.

In the perfect female world there is no porno, no prostitution and wives a 100 lock sole source provider of the 'tang. They want complete domination of the male animal.

Do you know why divorce is so expensive? Because it’s worth it.

Plus, you can lose 185 pounds without dieting!

I would say that looking at burka women is about the most depressing anti_sexual thing I can think if. Seems to work perfectly.

Since muslim birth rates are higher than those of Westerners, how do you figure that?

[Albion Wilde]

What seems to get people’s goat is that I point out that there’s two people involved here and that maybe, just maybe the wife is contributing to the problem too.

The reason our goats are gotten is that this statement is just plain wrong. It's the rape defense -- "She was wearing sexy clothes, Your honor! I couldn't help myself!"

It wouldn't matter if the wife wore a chastity belt. That is a separate issue.

He is one soul who will answer to God for his own choices, not hers. And if he is addicted to porn, he has a problem of sin that needs to be solved. How he solves it with regard to his wife is secondary to his understanding that dependence on porn is ruining his own mind and heart.

[tacticalogic]

He is one soul who will answer to God for his own choices

We all will, in due time.

[JCBreckenridge]

“this statement is just plain wrong”

I ask again. Do you believe a wife has a duty to have sex with her husband on a regular basis?

[JCBreckenridge]

Am I a priest? No.

I ask again. Do you believe that a wife has a duty to have sex with her husband on a regular basis?

[trisham]

Well said. I hope that you are right.

[mikemoose]

“a delete function”...I thank Him every day for that.
