An unmarried friend of mine recently posted this article on facebook: www.huffingtonpost.com/meg-conley/five-reasons-you-should-h_b_5647291.htmlI find the article to be pretty ridiculous, and originally assumed it was a spoof of something written about 50 years ago. But as people started commenting, I wondered... do people actually have "marital relations" EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT?

We have a four-month-old. DH and I are often in bed at 9 p.m. and the only "marital relations" are telling each other to stop hogging all the covers!

I don't even get to see DH some nights- let alone manage any extras.

No kids in our house, but the cover-hogging issue exists, along with: "Quit snoring!" "It's your turn to clean up the cat's hairball; I did it last time!" "Did you lock the front door/inside garage door/sliding glass door?" Hey, at least we are relating to one another!

We used to have "relations" several times a week...then I went and got a job. Now I am so exhausted when I get home, I am lucky if I can keep my eyes open past 8:30 pm!

(from the OP link) Without further ado here are five reasons you should have sex with your husband every night: I think that they are excellent reasons why you should have sex every night. Granted, there are practical realities to why it is not possible nor reasonable to have sex every night. That does not change the value of the ideas expressed.

Your friend is trying to come across as all cool and desirable to the guys just to get attention. I'll bet that once she's off the market, she won't be practicing what she preaches...one...single...bit. As a guy, I find these articles annoying because they imply men in general are sex-starved Neanderthals who need it every night or they'll resort to humping an apple pie or going on a rape spree. Hell, I don't want it every night. The only time I wanted it every night was when I couldn't get it any night.

We try to, barring medical issues and time constraints. Kid is in bed before we are, so we can usually squeeze something in. If not actual intercourse, one or the other of us could always receive some alternative stimulation from our partner. And aren't Carl and his wife famed for their rabbit-like stamina when they are under the same roof?

I see my hubby for about 2 hours a day. Total. We seriously ain't got time for that! But on his day off? Hanging from the chandelier funky monkey sex. And with kiddo grown up(ish) and hardly home anymore, we got lots more rooms to do it in! Took 5 years, but we've christened all 3 floors of the house finally.

All I can think is ... I'd have to regularly shave my legs during the winter! I have no time for that!

Archie is a sinner for other reasons fo' sho'.
Nightly nookie would be welcome by DH, but I apparantly keep us from reaching that frequency.
