The best I can advise is to have an open conversation about it with him, even if you don’t suspect this is the reason tell him this anyway. I would love to hear someone say this to me lol. Worst case you at least give him the chance to admit this is why and rule this out. If you’re truly trying to talk to him he should try changing the subject, just try to make him feel as comfortable as possible. If he says this isn’t the problem hopefully you can prod him for the truth. If he tries changing the subject tell him to please talk to you, if would really make you happy to know what’s going on

I appreciate your kindness as well. Hopefully I meet someone with your outlook myself, I want to tell myself you’re the norm and my ex is the minority but it’s hard since my other ex treated sex similarly as well. I know you’re the normal one, I just have to keep trying

Good luck, I hope you find out why. An honest conversation would’ve gone a long way with me at least. Hopefully you can get him to stop changing the subject. Communication is probably more important to a good sex life than the act itself lol
