I am not saying that successful men have low sex drive, I['m saying that they use that energy in creative ways in order to succeed. Also, women with high sex drives are not
necessarily overbearing. My reference to "it takes two strong legs to support a torso (marriage)" in another post on this thread refutes the mistaken theory that submissive women must be wimpy ladies.
To the contrary, let us hope both partners in a marriage are both healthy, honest and mature.

And I'm saying that sexual energy in males is not subject to sublimation. The sex drive certainly is motivator for success, to be sure, but sexual energy can only be used for one thing (or, just plain resisted). It's not transferrable, alas. To put it anothter way, my intellectual creativity (I'm a product development scientist) is not at all derived from my sexuality -- they're just 2 unrelated things..

Also, women with high sex drives are not necessarily overbearing.

I said the opposite. Overbearing women don't strike me as very (hetero)sexual beings at all.

My reference to "it takes two strong legs to support a torso (marriage)" in another post on this thread refutes the mistaken theory that submissive women must be wimpy ladies. To the contrary, let us hope both partners in a marriage are both healthy, honest and mature.

Agree with you 100% there. My wife is strong and certainly not overbearing. Yet she exhibits Godly submission in all areas where that counts.
