I wonder how common this is. I have two friends at the moment who just shared over the past week how they have been witholding sex b/c they are mad at their husbands. When the husband asks, they say no and give the reason, ie you didn't do such and such for me, or you made me angry yesterday, etc.

There have been times that I was still angry over an unresolved issue but i either 1)had sex anyway 2)said i wasn't in the mood,verbally or nonverbally
I've never ranted on about you are NOT getting sex because of X,Y,&Z!
Does anyone else think that's just asking for your man to mess around by hanging that over his head like that...using it as a bartering tool if you will?!

It sounds like they're too immature to be having sex to begin with.

Obviously these women feel that sex is a tool. If one of them were my wife, I would return the favor, and go find some other shed to put my tool in.

Long term, rented sex is a lot cheaper than sex at home, but not safer. The thing I hated most about being young is that a small part of my body tried to direct the activities of the rest of my body. I managed to stay in control . My wife never withheld sex over trivial things, in fact the only time was because she had recently given birth 7 minutes after getting to the hospital, no time for happy gas, in fact the happy gas man had to deliver the baby, and it was breach. She was afraid of getting pregnant, even while using the pill. Once I got the V operation, she was a lot more interested.
Withholding sex from the man is dangerous to the marriage. Most men won't put up with it for long. OTOH, if he is doing it right, she won't want to go very long without sex either. It can work against the woman as well...

Using sex as a weapon is a common thing for women, but it usually begins to taper off as they age. This is why I don't date women under 25. They haven't developed past the petty, mind-game bull****.

Yes, it's a bad idea to withold sex. Men will go to the restaraunt that is open.

I tell my wife, "You can't cut me off, you don't know where I get it."

Lucky bastard. I have problems finding women who could take a joke like that. With most ex-girlfriends, me saying something like that would be the harbinger of a major fight - one involving a constant repetition of "Who is she, Mike? Who is she?".

My wife is secure enough in our relationship that she knows I'm not going anywhere.

Gipper

Well, then clone her, cut off 10 years, and ship her to me COD. I'll cover the handling charge.

Pretty much every woman in my past simply doesn't get it, or thought I was joking, when I said that jealousy is a complete turn-off and to stop acting that way.

Im not cruel enough to do that to women.
