To put the only stereotype of the frigid female to rest — and to shed light on the dissatisfaction a lot of women feel in their s-exual relationships — we put out a call for stories from women who had been physically involved with a partner who didn’t share their s-ex drive.
The emails poured in. From age 25 to 65, single, in relationships and married, women wrote to us about how they have struggled — or are still struggling — with the fact that they want s-ex more than their partners, often much, much more. We present their stories below not to blame men or women for these issues, but to showcase that s-exual frequency is an issue for partners regardless of gender, age or marital status.
