Another study published in tells us that the longer a relationship lasts, the more women's sexual desire decreases, which is not the case for men.
Sex positivity is a great thing. While there are many reasons people choose to have sex pleasure, pleasing others, intimacy, stress relief, escape, or self-validationthere are plenty of other ways to meet these reasons without having sex.
