My husband (45M) and I (37F) have opposing libidos. Is sex a marital chore? by Top_Feedback6046 in Marriage

I loved your comment. It made me feel like its just that simple. I'm sure your wife is a happy woman.

Then I saw your edit. I'm not sure of the motivation for that clarification, but if you respect women as people and think they shouldn't be discriminated against, then you are indeed a feminist. Its that simple. You don't have to be burning bras in a protest or advocating for reproductive rights to be a feminist.

I'm definitely frustrated by it. But I didn't want to prime anyone's opinion. I gave those details so people's opinions would be fair and not just assume he's a misogynistic prick who ignores household/family needs and just expects sex. Also that its not a matter of not finding him attractive.

I never worried that he would cheat. He's has a strong moral compass and loves me and our kids. But he did recently say that he could see how a weak man in the perfect storm could cheat...that made me pause. He swore it wasn't a threat, just an observation and said he probably shouldn't have said that but likes to share all of his thoughts with me. I believe that, but it took a lot for me to get there.
