Because blaming HER for HIS affair is the best way to figure out what went wrong…
Apparently, we have returned to the classic stereotype that if a heterosexual man as an affair, it is his female partner’s fault. I am just as aghast at the comments to this article as I am with the actual text. Summary: Emily is a busy lawyer with a husband and two year old son. She hasn’t had sex with her husband for months. He had an affair. It’s her fault because she didn’t want to have sex. Feminism is to blame!

" Some may argue that sex is such an intimate and personal set of behaviours and beliefs that lack of compromise is justified. I would argue quite the opposite. It is because of its personal nature that sex should be explored between a couple. And by exploring their differences, and reconciling them, a couple’s attachment to, and love for, each other is often heightened."
is just about the only part of the article that should have made it to print.
But you're right: some people don't talk about sex. If anything, feminism has encourage people to talk about sex and sexuality.
My whole take is if you're going to NOT talk about sex and your relationship flops as a result then maybe you aren't mature enough to be in a relationship.
