Maintenance Sex

Armed with a proper understating of the concept, I would hope that anyone in a relationship would have access to maintenance sex.
 
Haa haa Jezebel article...yeah I made it as far as the 2nd paragraph, right when "MARITAL RAPE!" made an appearance. The comments ARE hysterical BTW.


Oh and I'm another Simon lurker. I should tell him that more, so I am.

Then you should read further.

I would hate to think of how much great sex I would've missed if my feminist principles didn't allow for maintenance sex.

It describes marital rape, and this ain't it. It's doing something for your spouse even if you're not in the mood. I'm not usually in the mood to take out the trash, change the oil in the car, or be a taxi service for the kids. Guess what? I still do it. In return I'm doing my share to have a clean house, a happy car, and enjoy hanging with the kids.

SOOOO many marriages would be better if the 'other half' put out once in a while
 
Some men don't enjoy anal/ anal play. It's easier to get them to help with rhe washing up.

This is truth. I maintain an open mind to sexual things things I've not tried, but the reality puts me off. I really need someone to help me understand how one can ignore the feces involved, no matter now minute the amount. I'm not a dirty bitch, I scrub up downstairs...but, c'mon, right? And I have a dishwasher in my kitchen JUSSAYIN.

On topic, I've told the story before about when an ex noticed I was fussy and offered up the box to get me back on track before party guests arrived. It worked, not only that but it struck me as a sweet and selfless thing, memorable because of the kindness. So I think I would be in the maintenance sex camp even though sex is of middling importance to me.
 
So I was reading this older Jezebel story about How to Have Maintenance Sex and it got me to thinking but the comments got me laughing

So what say you, are you a pro maintenance sex person or a non maintenance sex person?

nice bed:devil::devil:
 
I have missed you.

I am very behind wiTh all personal communications and unable To Catch up
Just now but ... I Have missed you round here.

Why thank you, Buttersquash! This time of year is the busiest with social engagements for me I've come to realize. Much fun to have in a short amount of time; but I felt I was being neglectful, so I've dropped in this weekend to offer Literotica some maintenance sex.
 
Maintenance sex is important and it's not just women who withhold sex - men do it as well. I loved the comment earlier about the starving partner.... that was me, and now I'm divorced. It leads to resentment, lack of communication, distrust, and a whole slew of issues.

With that said, there is a difference between maintenance sex and marital rape. Only a pig would suggest otherwise. There still has to be a level of consent in maintenance sex. I may not WANT to go to the grocery store, but no one is forcing me to go. If you are forcing your partner to have sex and they have made it clear they do not want it and have made attempts to evade you, you're an asshole and a rapist.
 
Still????

it's not too hard of a fix, just a dirty line, but it was decided the kids needed to learn how to properly wash dishes. for the time being, it is staying broke. that just means i am constantly on everyone's ass to do the dishes.

I do agree that maintenance sex is an important thing and could ultimately save a relationship. Much like you I have been in a relationship where I have been starved of sex and yes the scars run deep.

However, maintenance sex is sex without heart / lacks passion and so a level of emptiness must be involved after. Intent is everything.

I disagree. Maintenance sex may lack the passion but doing it because you love your partner gives it heart. It is possible to get satisfaction from their pleasure and contentment even if you don't have sexual needs at the time. It's just a different way of seeing things.
 
It's a healthy part of a relationship.

Unless you're both nymphos, in which case its compulsory.
 
Pro or con maintenance sex is mostly for many people a viewpoint.

All I know is that I fell better physically and mentally when I get some occasionally. I am happier and able to concentrate better and my body just works better.

I agree with your disagreement.

One never knows where maintenance sex may lead, either. What might start out as "oh sure, why not?" can turn pretty hot sometimes.

My wife and I have had alot of sex like this, we love sex so we do it alot of times she wasn't interested but did it because she knew I needed a realeas.. It just is a mutual thing for us...

I see your point... I suppose all I was trying to say is maintenance sex can't be the only sex.
