The Top 10 Reasons Men Don't Have Sex with Their Wife

Why would a healthy man, physically capable and in a stable relationship, choose not to have sex with a healthy woman who is his wife?

This is the question researchers Bob Berkowitz, Ph.D., and Susan Yager-Berkowitz, M.A. are trying to understand. They surveyed 4000 people using methods that guaranteed the participants would remain anonymous. The research included in-depth online interviews.

As you might imagine most of the survey respondents were female (67 percent) as women are usually more comfortable discussing relationship issues than men. That being said, still about 1000 men participated in the survey.

The survey asked the men to rate a list of 22 reasons why they stopped having sex with their partners. They could rate the reason using a scale of "strongly agree" to "strongly disagree".

Here are the top 10 reasons men said they don't have sex with their wife:

10. He has Erectile Dysfunction.

9. He doesn't find his wife physically attractive.

8. He feels depressed.

7. His wife has gained a lot of weight.

6. She's depressed.

5. He's bored.

4. He's interested in having sex with someone other that his wife.

3. He's angry at her.

2. He believes she doesn't enjoy sex.

1. She isn't sexually adventurous enough.

The researchers said many of the reasons overlapped, as the men could answer strongly agree or agree with more than one answer. But what surprised them the most was the number one answer - She isn't sexually adventurous enough - was way ahead of all the rest of the reasons men said they quit having sex with their wife.

So if men say they lose interest in sex because their wife isn't sexually adventurous enough, then it begs the question "What does it mean to be sexually adventurous?" And what can a woman do to be more sexually adventurous and keep her husband interested?
