I never said gender equality has been achieved. You are pontificating about people you never met, based on prejudice. What is your data? Mayo Clinic says 40% of women experience dyspareunia (painful intercourse), yet many don’t realize it’s a treatable medical condition. Or they take long to realize. My wife’s physiotherapist had a 60-years-old patient. Additionally, libido naturally varies between individuals, meaning couples with mismatched desires must both adapt.
These physical factors are often compounded by psychological barriers, such as sexually repressive upbringings and stigma surrounding therapy. When a woman is unaware that her condition is treatable, she may deflect blame rather than seek help. Pontificating that sexual difficulties are always the husband’s fault only reinforces this resistance. Blame narratives prevent women from accessing the care they need.
Generalization sucks.
