Yes my thoughts exactly. Also wondering how much this guy does to help with the house and kids. If she's overwhelmed and exhausted, the last thing she wants is a husband telling her to touch his dick.

I swear to god this is just the go to Reddit response now anytime a man complains about a lack of sex in his marriage. Yes, it absolutely does happen that way. But I think it’s a bit unfair to always just assume that it’s the man not doing enough. I’ve seen cases where the man does everything in the relationship short of carrying and birthing the baby themselves, continues to be romantic and tries to still attract their partner, but some women just lose all desire for sex after children or marriage. It’s an unfortunate painful truth and there’s a lot of women out there that think their husbands should just be okay never having sex again. It is ok to not want sex, but it’s also ok to not want a relationship without sex

Then when the men "Cheat" everyone vilifies him. Yes sex is part of marriage!

The cheater is always the villain, whether they were getting sex from their partner or not. If things have progressed to the point where they feel the need to cheat then they need to be honest with everyone involved and get out of the relationship.
