BANNED FROM SEX
BANNED FROM SEX Below is a letter sent to Suzi Godson, The Times’ sex counsel: My long-term girlfriend likes to impose a sex ban every so often, where we spend a week not allowed to touch each other. She thinks it increases the excitement by making us mad with desire for each other, but I think we shouldn’t need that crutch to have good sex. The agony aunt - sorry, sex counsel - noted that the girlfriend’s sex ban is "naïve" by creating artificial barriers to intimacy. Suzi Godson believed that banning sex is "misguided" as research shows that "having sex (that you want to have) can boost rather than diminish libido." She advised that the girlfriend "may find that this year’s limit is next year’s target." Have you ever imposed a temporary ban on a partner from having sex with you? Have ever been banned from having sex with your partner? Have you ever banned yourself from having sex? If a partner temporarily banned me from having sex in such circumstances, I’d permanently ban them from my life! I’ve never indulged in sexual abstinence. If there’s been a period in my life when I didn’t have sex, it was because of a lack of opportunity and not because of a conscious choice! One of my friends periodically undergoes abstinence from sex, sometimes for a period of up to a year. My friend claims that, by not having sex, he becomes more enlightened. I think he’s reading too many books on stoicism. I tease him that he’s just trying to rationalise his lack of sexual opportunities due to his ugliness! Suzi Godson observed that many people often need a benchmark of what constitutes as normal when it comes to sex but warned of the dangers of being “obsessed with numbers”. In their 2013 The Normal Bar bestseller book, Chrisanna Northrup, Pepper Schwartz and James Witte surveyed 70,000 people and found that couples on average have sex three to four times a week. But last year Dr Amy Muise and other psychologists from the University of Toronto found that couples who have sex just once a week enjoy the happiest relationships. It seems more sex makes us less happy! I suspect the University of Toronto psychologists found only a correlation and not causation, a common pitfall in much scientific quantitative research. |

Never had a ban, not like the idea of that.

When couples are going through counseling and one of the partners does not have the libido of the other, the common practice by the counselor is to put a sex ban in place, so that the undersexed one doesn't feel the pressure to perform while the counseling is taking place. It makes sense, if only because the sense of guilt for the undersexed one can be enormous and contribute to feelings of resentment to the one with the higher sex drive. Unfortunately, as you so aptly exampled in your post, the one having the ban put on them then becomes resentful. For this reason, I think that perhaps, people really SHOULD know if they are matched sexually speaking before marrying. Thank you, this will be the basis for my next post.

The only ban I've experienced was after my wife had the babies. She was the one who broke that ban... I was trying to be good but what can I say... Vive La Difference

I don't think mine is a "ban" ...at least not for a more intense romp when we do have sex. I think maybe she just lost interest or something....I surely haven't lost interest!

Maybe the people who say 3 or 4 times are saying what they think they should get, not what they are getting, and so are unhappy. Whereas the people saying once a week are content with what they get and so don't exaggerate... In other words... I don't trust anything that people say about sex

There are good reasons, like in your case, where a sex ban is necessary. I should have been less damning of a sex ban; it's all down to the reaasons behind it.
