My experience is that women have higher sex drives. For the reasons as outlined by SH and Gisella. If this happens to you guys - go straight to the tantric sex manual.

May I offer my experience. What you are finding is not at all uncommon. Don't flame me ladies, but they have just found in the UK, that now that women are working the same as men in the office, their incidence of heart disease etc is catching up with men's.

Now if you throw the traditional roles of mother wife and housekeeper on top of a hard job, you have a recipe for a lot of exhausted women. You are not going to have a great sex life with an exhausted woman or man for that matter.

I am not saying that you don't, but I do all the food shopping and all the cooking (it's usually a pleasure for me), I know how to use the hoover, dishwasher and washing machine. I prefer to be independent.

If someone comes home from work exhausted only to face a whole new set of jobs - well your heart drops. If however you can come home to a reasonably clean place, a stocked fridge and time to put your feet up for half an hour before a good dinner is cooked for you, well then you can start thinking about that shower together.
