Latest / The Dr. Psych Mom Show with clinical psychologist Dr. Samantha Rodman Whiten / Why Isn't Your Wife Down For A Quickie Anymore?
Transcript
- 0:05Hi everybody, and welcome to the doctor psych mom, show.
- 0:08Today, we're going to talk about why your wife is not down to
- 0:12have a quickie anymore, and if you have been following me, as I
- 0:16hope you have, you will understand that women require
- 0:19foreplay to get turned on. But, you know, you may also
- 0:22think that she used to be, you know, ready to go all the time.
- 0:26And why isn't she anymore? Must because she hates you or
- 0:28something. No, no it is not and we will
- 0:31discuss. I mean she may hate you.
- 0:33I don't know but but that's Not going to be the primary reason
- 0:38and we will get to that. Just as soon as I tell you to
- 0:40subscribe, my most recent subscriber episode was on how
- 0:43often you should talk, because you actually do have to talk,
- 0:46not just have sex. So, you know, you you will not
- 0:50know how often people have close and connected conversations if
- 0:53you're not the sort of person that is into talking
- 0:55emotionally. So that's why I tried to help
- 0:57you with that. Particularly if you are a guy
- 1:00whose wife has said, we don't talk, we never talk.
- 1:03Why don't we talk of it? Tall.
- 1:05But talk so I'll help you to understand what that means and
- 1:10why she keeps saying it despite you talking to her quite
- 1:13frequently about logistical management of the home, and the
- 1:16finances and the budgets, and whatever else.
- 1:18Alright, so why is your wife not down for a quickie?
- 1:21Now, I'm going to assume your wife is somewhere between 35 and
- 1:2455 if not, whatever. I don't know why you're
- 1:28listening. If you, if you need to listen to
- 1:30me, I mean, after 55. Yes.
- 1:32But before 35 and he may be right.
- 1:35Children young so either way, most people that listen to me
- 1:39have wives who have had children already and they are really out
- 1:44of the honeymoon stage and squarely into the
- 1:46disillusionment face. As I described in my one of my
- 1:49previous podcasts about the honeymoon, stage post honeymoon
- 1:52stage, what does that look like for?
- 1:54Happy? Couples that one talk walks, you
- 1:55through the stages. But anyway, she used to be that
- 1:58you could just roll over and immediately penetrate her and no
- 2:02longer. Does she do that?
- 2:03Why many guys That it's because they just don't go to the gym
- 2:06enough. No, it has nothing to do with
- 2:10you. Nothing nothing to do with you.
- 2:12You could be like, so, like romantic and loving, and
- 2:17wonderful, and she's still not gonna be able to do that shit as
- 2:19she gets older. Why?
- 2:21Because she does not respond the way that she used to do you
- 2:24remember, when you were in Middle School?
- 2:26You would get an erection just out of nowhere.
- 2:28That's how women are too. Like they don't talk about it
- 2:31especially if they're not, you know, like really into talking
- 2:34about sex. But women that are young women
- 2:37in their 20s are going to get wed and easily penetrated.
- 2:41Just, you know, like, look at Luke Perry.
- 2:45I'm 90210 or what have you? I'm dating myself with that
- 2:48reference. But the point is like that
- 2:51doesn't happen anymore, and it doesn't happen at all.
- 2:54And so, when she's ovulating, so, this takes us back to some
- 2:57other podcast that y'all should already have listened to, like,
- 3:00what does arousal look like. And women an oral sex on women
- 3:04and the importance of four, And does your wife even enjoy sex
- 3:07and like, all of those. So a lot of guys assume as I've
- 3:11discussed many times that if the inside of the woman's vagina is
- 3:15not dry like dry like literally like a hand then she's turned
- 3:20on, not like a sweaty hand, like the other side of your hand, the
- 3:23back of your hand, but that's not true.
- 3:26Like they're like they're like obvious changes and how wet the
- 3:30woman gets over the course of the menstrual cycle and over the
- 3:32course of the arousal Arc. So when She's ovulating.
- 3:37Some women that use the Rhythm method and or or trying to get
- 3:40pregnant you like measure, you know, that's why can't I talk
- 3:46the day of ovulation they're trying to figure out the day of
- 3:49ovulation such that they can get pregnant that they're more
- 3:52likely to get pregnant. They learn that the vaginal
- 3:56secretions on the day of ovulation and leading up to
- 3:58ovulation, progressively, get more slippery and and like egg
- 4:02white and you can feel this. This is one of the ways that
- 4:04people Until they're ovulating is the mucus in the vagina gets
- 4:09different, right? It gets more slippery so that
- 4:12the sperm can go up, you know, and swim to the egg more easily
- 4:18and more liquid kind of environment, right?
- 4:21So that's going to happen when she ovulate.
- 4:23So if you think that she just gets really turned on when she
- 4:26ovulate, she does get more turned on but it's also
- 4:28literally to secretions are different when she ovulate
- 4:32because remember the entire point of why Thing happens ever
- 4:36with people is to procreate like evolutionarily.
- 4:39At least that is the reason. So yes she gets wetter when
- 4:43she's ovulating she also gets more easily turned on when she's
- 4:46ovulating because you know the wet is nothing if she doesn't
- 4:49want to have sex because then she can't get pregnant.
- 4:51The point is pregnancy evolutionarily again.
- 4:54So you got to understand that other times of the month.
- 4:58It's not like she's like dry. She's like a human being, it's a
- 5:02mucous membrane but she's not as wet.
- 5:05Can you get her as wet at other times of the month?
- 5:07Unless she is up to perimenopause which starts again
- 5:11in the 40s? Then yeah, you are.
- 5:13But it needs a lot of foreplay for her to get really wet.
- 5:17If you just try to put your penis in, it hurts, it hurts.
- 5:20Even though the inside of her feels to your, you know, casual
- 5:26untrained feel quote wet. It feels wet, but she can get a
- 5:31lot more wet. Is the point most of the I'm
- 5:35right unless you know, I don't even know what unless you were
- 5:38already doing a lot of foreplay but there's not a lot of women
- 5:41that are just going to look at you at all and get wet.
- 5:44But if they're, if they do exist, those women are in their
- 5:4720s. As I said, in your like, a new
- 5:49guy and they are, you know, really into you.
- 5:52It's honeymoon stage or you're like a brand new guy and they
- 5:55look at you and they do get wet, they do get turned on but that
- 5:58does not happen anymore. Just like usually just when you
- 6:01look at your wife you don't get hurt.
- 6:03Some of y'all, do your The younger end of my listeners and
- 6:07some of you don't and it doesn't mean that you're not attracted
- 6:10to her, you know, but just like watching her, like, do the
- 6:12laundry or whatever. Like, isn't going to turn you on
- 6:15the way when you were 25 watching her, like do anything
- 6:18turns you on physiologically you have turned on.
- 6:21So the point is, is that she can you can't just roll over and
- 6:25stick your dick into your wife, because it's gonna hurt, and
- 6:29it's gonna hurt because she's not wet, and it's also going to
- 6:32hurt because another aspect of arousal is, When blood flows
- 6:36into the vagina and it plumps up the labia.
- 6:39And it makes it like a welcoming environment so that you don't
- 6:42bruise her and hurt her, everything there gets more
- 6:46filled with blood. It's like an erection, you know,
- 6:48but you know a woman version and her clitoris is filled with
- 6:52blood and her labia are filled with blood and everything is
- 6:54filled with blood like how you know your penis is filled with
- 6:57blood when you have an erection. And so that also that plumpness
- 7:03combined with the wet, Is what allows her to not hurt when you
- 7:09have sex with her. So if you think that this is
- 7:12something related to that, your wife is just not fun and
- 7:16spontaneous. It's like, you know, for a
- 7:19woman. If you are, just penetrated,
- 7:21when you're not wet and you're not pumped up, you're not
- 7:23excited at all. It hurts.
- 7:26It hurts and the older you get the more it hurts because the
- 7:29more of that you need to get into it and the less it gets so
- 7:34like your 55 year-old direction is not going to feel like you're
- 7:3725 year-old Direction. Even if you try to convince
- 7:40yourself, that it does. It's just not the same erectile
- 7:43quality as they say in the research.
- 7:45So it's not as hard. And so she doesn't add a certain
- 7:49age, certainly post menopause. And usually starting in
- 7:52perimenopause, she just doesn't get as wet, she doesn't get as
- 7:56turned on as she used to when she was much younger.
- 7:59So then the same kind of pounding that you could have
- 8:02done when you were younger and she was younger that Hurts.
- 8:05Now, it hurts like hell. And so she doesn't want you to
- 8:09do it. And when she's alone with her
- 8:10own therapist and of course I am, the therapist in those
- 8:13situations frequently. She says that it hurts and
- 8:16you're shoving yourself into her.
- 8:18She thinks that you're an asshole because she doesn't
- 8:21understand how little, you know, about female biology, which is
- 8:24what I'm trying to remedy with this podcast.
- 8:26So I got a lot of smart guys that I work with, that know
- 8:29nothing about the female body. They assumed that the woman is
- 8:33not down to just Have the sex of choose to have the up against
- 8:38the wall kind of, you know, spontaneous sex because she's
- 8:43not turned on by them. They're not enough of an alpha,
- 8:46they didn't go to the gym as much as they should have.
- 8:48They didn't act in an assertive dominant way.
- 8:51That didn't run a dread game or what have you and it's they
- 8:56don't understand. It's not about them, it's about
- 8:58her and her body, there's no woman.
- 9:01Well there are. There there are some women that
- 9:03don't want to have sex either you know, Sex - and repressed,
- 9:06but if you had previously, a wife that was really down to
- 9:10have sex whenever wherever it was a lot of fun, and whatever.
- 9:13And now all of a sudden from your perspective, really was
- 9:16over the past 10-15 years, she no longer wants to do this, is
- 9:21because her body changed, she wants to be able to look at a
- 9:24hot guy and get wet and turned on right away.
- 9:27That's a fun thing. Just like it is to be able to
- 9:30have like, you know, three erections within, you know, two
- 9:33hours as a dude That's fun. It's fun to be young, and to
- 9:37have your body work at its Max Capacity for procreation, but
- 9:41you don't think of it as procreation just for fun.
- 9:43But that is what it's for its for.
- 9:45So that the young people who have the highest you know
- 9:49ability to get pregnant and pass on the you know they're there
- 9:54what's the word? It's not a zygote their
- 9:57chromosomes you know that they can do so because they can have
- 10:01all the sex they want. It's lots of fun and it's very
- 10:03gratifying for them. So they have More sex and then
- 10:06our species, you know, grows and grows, right?
- 10:09So the point here is women want to be able to do that women.
- 10:12Miss their ability to be able to be turned on by at the drop of a
- 10:16hat. So, if so many guys would be
- 10:19like, a woman would be a real asshole.
- 10:21If he was like, well, why are you so soft?
- 10:24Now? Why is your erection so much
- 10:25different? Now, used to be a lot different
- 10:2720 years ago. I'll tell you that what
- 10:29happened, but that is exactly what you are unintentionally
- 10:33doing when you Lane about your wife, not being able to do a
- 10:36quickie, she thinks, you know, because women don't know about
- 10:40what men know just like men. Don't know about what women,
- 10:43don't know, whatever. And why I do these podcasts, the
- 10:46woman thinks is so obvious that I'm not wet.
- 10:49It's so obvious. I'm not turned on.
- 10:50It's obvious, he's hurting me. You know, why is he doing this?
- 10:54You just such an asshole, right? But you don't know that you
- 10:57think she is kind of wet and you kind of don't necessarily
- 11:02remember like minute-to-minute what it was like before.
- 11:05Seems. Alright, certainly not dry and
- 11:08you know she doesn't really make that much noise at the best of
- 11:11times. So she's not saying our or
- 11:13anything. So like the guy doesn't know it
- 11:15hurt. She thinks he knows but somehow
- 11:18he's doing it anyway, you know. And so you see how that would go
- 11:23then. She thinks you're truly a
- 11:24tremendous sadist and asshole which a lot of women do.
- 11:27And then the man is like, but why don't you say it hurts or
- 11:30something? She's like, well, I thought that
- 11:31it's obvious if I'm not making any noise and he's like you
- 11:34don't ever fucking make it. Noise.
- 11:35So you haven't made any noise since like the 90s but they
- 11:38don't they're like, you know, they're they're missing each
- 11:41other, they're not understanding each other because nobody
- 11:43communicates. So what should you get out of
- 11:45this podcast? And from all my podcast, as you
- 11:48should talk about it, you should say how has your body changed,
- 11:52you know, in the past 10 years in terms of sex, why is it that
- 11:56you don't that you can't have cookies anymore?
- 11:57Does it hurt you? And then you should also lead
- 12:00with anything that makes you a sympathetic character.
- 12:03Like, I've noticed that My erections really aren't what
- 12:06they used to be all the time. Remember, I used to be able to
- 12:08get hard like you know five times in a weekend away and now
- 12:12I can't now it's twice or once or whatever three times, you
- 12:16know, don't use it as a bragging thing, you trying to do the
- 12:19opposite, you're trying to say or you can just talk about your
- 12:21body in general. Like man.
- 12:23Remember when I used to be able to, you know, like do whatever,
- 12:26whatever I used to do athletically, man, I'm not that
- 12:29person anymore. That sucks.
- 12:30You know, and then like is, do you notice any changes in
- 12:33yourself because Cuz I've noticed for example, that I
- 12:36don't, you know, get an erection as quick as I used to whatever
- 12:40it is. Women would so many women would
- 12:42just die of joy to hear their husband say anything that makes
- 12:48them seem like more of a part of the problem in bed because they
- 12:53are so used to being thought of as a problem, the low libido
- 12:56partner is the problem. Well, tell you, like a lot of
- 12:59those low libido partners are just women who are aging but
- 13:02they're combined with a man who is age.
- 13:05To. So like if they were with, you
- 13:07know, the man who's like 25 years old and his prime super
- 13:10hot body. Does erection seven times in an
- 13:13hour or whatever, then they would be a little more turned on
- 13:16to, you know, for real and it's bi-directional.
- 13:20So a lot of guys are like, my wife doesn't do anything,
- 13:22exciting in bed, but they don't do anything exciting and bed
- 13:24either. And the most success and they
- 13:25think that the doing excited that the thing they're doing
- 13:28exciting is asking her, hey, do you think maybe one day when
- 13:32it's not, you know, like, on the same night, As our daughters
- 13:35piano lesson that I could like use the sex toy on you.
- 13:39Um, and that's not exciting. So my point of this as well as
- 13:43all of my work in general is to say use some empathy and get
- 13:47some kind of humility about your own impact.
- 13:52So here it's saying that are you really being as empathic and
- 13:56well educated as you could be about the impact of aging on a
- 14:01woman's ability to become aroused and are you?
- 14:05In to remediate that change by an increased emphasis on
- 14:10massage, for play edging, whatever techniques you have to
- 14:15do to extend the encounter such that she is able to get wet or
- 14:19you using Lube, are you touching her every time with Lube?
- 14:22If you're touching her manually for some women as I discussed in
- 14:26the female arousal podcast, the lube kind of gets in the way?
- 14:29Because guys think oh cool. I got like a shortcut now.
- 14:32I got the lube so I can start touching her vagina.
- 14:35Like almost, as soon as we get into the bedroom and really
- 14:38expedite, this encounter the point of the lube is in no way
- 14:41for Expediting. So if your wife has any ability
- 14:46to still get wet naturally, then you should figure out how long
- 14:49that takes, because it may be a hell of a lot longer than you
- 14:51think. And of course, some women can't.
- 14:53And if you bring out move, they can't anymore because they're in
- 14:56Perry or menopause. And if you bring out Lube W,
- 14:58very relieved, honestly quite that you did something about
- 15:02what they thought was a problem that you both notice.
- 15:05As I'm saying, I know you may not even have noticed but I'm
- 15:08telling you is there. So point is women do not get wet
- 15:12the same way as that used to. It's the same thing as your
- 15:14erection quality of the wetness of the female arousal goes down
- 15:18in the same way as the quality of the male erection goes down.
- 15:21Also she doesn't get as literally erect as she used to
- 15:24like her clitoris or labia she doesn't get the same blood flow
- 15:26as she used to same. As you likely don't, there's no
- 15:29amount of like exercise or some shit that's going to like, fix
- 15:34the fact that human beings and All Creatures eventually die,
- 15:38you know. So like let's be reasonable
- 15:40sure. There could be some impact, some
- 15:43good impact of things like estrogen cream or or any other
- 15:47hormone replacement. But as I talked about some women
- 15:49don't want to try that in some women are all right, some women
- 15:52are just in there, you know, 40s instead of in their 20s.
- 15:55But they don't have a partner that acts like that.
- 15:58And if there was an increase in foreplay and an increase in
- 16:01understanding about female anatomy and arousal, then the
- 16:05Problem would be solved, you know?
- 16:07So try to go that route first before you talk about, including
- 16:11any substances hormones or anything because or sex toys or
- 16:16anything learn about her body, learn about what makes her work,
- 16:20learn about the impact of age and biology on anatomy and
- 16:23arousal. Because then she will truly see
- 16:26that you are trying to be a more attentive and empathic lover.
- 16:29And likely will feel a lot better about you.
- 16:32If you are trying really hard to Make her happy instead of just
- 16:37rolling over and penetrating her like you did when you guys were
- 16:4025 which just as I've said, really hammered at home, doesn't
- 16:44work anymore. Alright, I hope that this was at
- 16:47least one useful factoid for one person.
- 16:50Please join my Facebook group. If you like hanging out with me
- 16:53in this parasocial relationship and I'll talk to you soon.
- 16:56Bye, bye.
