Sex Sex Sex !

Sex sells... that's why it's everywhere ;)

Yes, some people can live without it.

I'm not one of them, LOL!!

Two separate issues...
Sex sells b/c it gets attention, making it a very effective marketing tool.

You may want to talk with your doctor about the complete lack of sex drive. I don't know that it's a counseling issue (unless you are depressed or very unhappy with your husband). It may be hormonal or you may be very stressed- either/both can cause diminished sex drive.

It sounds like your husband has a different view than you do, so you may want to have a conversation with him about how you are feeling b/c sex is often a major issue for couples!

i agree sex is everywhere and very commercialized ......
but with that said, I would ask, why do you not want sex with your husband? it is the most intimate act a couple in love can have. it doesn't have to always be mushy but the desire of your partner to want to make you feel good and vice versa is selfless and beautiful.
maybe I am the one who is different though lol but if so, I prefer it over not wanting that intimacy with my soul mate, the man I love so dearly.....Just MHO

When I lost my sex drive completely, I found out I had PPD. Got help and I don't have that issue anymore.

I understand how obnoxious it is to see/hear/read about sex in advertising/music/shows, but if you're not disgusted by sex all around, you tend not to notice it really after awhile. I was super-sensitive about it when I didn't want it... But I don't really notice it now.

There's defiantly an over load of it out there.
Get rid of the magazines, and turn off the tv and radio.
You'll feel better when you are not barraged by it all the time.
Too much of even a good thing is not good for you.

Eh, there have been a number of times in my life when I felt like you do now.

Today is not one of them.

I'm sure there'll be more phases where it takes a backseat (for a TRILLION different reasons).

Sit tight, it'll come back. Hopefully, he'll understand/wait.

I feel the same way!!! Its all over. There was a time when you did not talk about it. Now thats is all I hear. This has put a big strain on my marriage because, I am so busy with work and the kids and it seems that this is all my husband cares about. I am sick of it!

If this has always been the case - - you may be what is referred to asexual.

If this is a new issue - go to both your gyn and general practitioner RIGHT AWAY and tell them what's been going on and get some tests done. CMP, CBC, TSH, are just the main ones they will do right away.

Probably some kind of hormonal issue.. If you are taking birth control pills that could be the reason. Stress will do bad things for a sex drive. You might go to the health food store and get some herbal remedies to increase sex drive.

You might be able to live without sex, but your husband probably won't want to. There are many reasons for not wanting to have sex. I suggest you find out what yours is. Put the shoe on the other foot. How would you feel if your husband did something for you just to get you off his back? Even if they don't say it, men don't just want a warm body - they want someone who is participating AND enjoying it.
