Absolutely true. And if the husband is going to cheat, it's better to do it with a contained, safe sex worker who is std tested regularly. Way lower chance of her "stealing" the husband away, and the husband gets a sexual outlet so he's less likely to leave the marriage! https://twitter.com/default_friend/status/1330650785609355267 …

Withholding sex for months/years should be considered a form of abuse, IMO.

That's a tough one...nobody should be guaranteed sex

I love how this argument is always framed around the man's sexual needs , as though the woman has none

Nobody owes a partner sex. Nobody owes a partner celibacy. Women are actually pretty pragmatic and if they truly lost their drive, most would be OK with an arrangement. I believe men cheat because they don't want to give their wives the same freedom.

I believe women don't lose their drive so much as they're underwhelmed in bed and drained from handling a larger share of the emotional labor. Men cheat when they neither want to up their effort nor provide equal freedom wherein she might find someone "better."

What is the wife supposed to do? Leave him, live a lie knowing her husband has a mistress or uses prostitutes, or have painful and undesired sex?

Masturbate? Sex is a strong desire but nobody needs it. You can live without it.

This kind of discussion only ever seems to go one way. Women also cheat you know (some studies suggest at higher rates than men) and husbands often lose their libido as they get older and yet, where are all the gigolos? It’s almost as though sex isn’t something we’re entitled to.

I'm interested in the heteronormative framing of this. Many women live in marriages and relationships where the man witholds any physical intimacy,v sexual contact and affection. It devastates their confidence and makes them feel unworthy and frustrated.

I also do think this is bad (but less common)! I've experienced this myself and it sucks ass.
