Your Voice:

• Because I felt I had to. That's what I'm supposed to do.
  
  
• I don't remember a time when she wanted to have sex and I didn't. My sexual appetite is stronger than hers and I take every opportunity.
  
  
• I am usually the aggressor.
  
  
• I am always on the look out for a chance to make love so at all times it is welcome.
  
  
• Because part of loving your spouse is being able to give them part of you even if at first you are reluctant. After all there will always be times when you have to sacrifice something for love.
  
  
• I've always wanted sex if my spouse did.
  
  
• Yes I wanted my spouse to be fulfilled and felt it would be the only opportunity I would have to express my feeling in this manner.
  
  
• We always agree when we're going to do it, if one of us is not in the mood then we don't do it!
  
  
• To keep peace in the marriage.
  
  
• For myself I can never get enough of my wife. I always want to have sex with her.
  
  
• I don't share the same amount of interest in sex as my husband does.
  
  
• Yes because I know that my body also belongs to my husband. There may be times that I want to have sex and he doesn't so it's only fair that when he wants to and I don't that I compromise too. My husband has needs as well as I do so to honor my marriage, I give in at times that I don't want to. But I have never been forced into it and my husband would not if I truly objected.
  
  
• Yes, because it is important to keep an intimate relationship with your partner.
  
  
• To not hurt his feelings.
  
  
• I was pregnant for nine months and he barely got any, so I have been giving in because I feel that he has needs that need to be met as well.
  
  
• Guess it is because I am a male. Seems as though every male wants sex 100,000 times more often than women! Why is that??? Is it just the way society "raises" us?
  
  
• I guess I am a people pleaser and didn't want to say no or disappoint him.
  
  
• The best part of marriage is serving one's life-partner's needs. Not our own!!
  
  
• She wanted to.
  
  
• Because he wanted it and there was no reason why he shouldn't.
  
  
• Releases sexual tension, pushed to perform.
  
  
• Because I knew it would make him happy. And sometimes I loose sight of his needs, because I tend to focus on the needs I have that are not being met.
