Why? It's an honest question. People were debating about 4 times a week being too much or too little. I thought it would be an interesting poll. Names aren't attached so it's anonymous. And, yes I do have balls but they belong to my husband.

I will be the first to say 3 is our average. Some weeks it's 2, others 4 with most being 3.
I'm satisfied and by all accounts, he says he is too.

I said 3. Some times it is more, some times it is less. My previous relationship before my marriage involved a man with a high sex drive but zero seduction skills. His idea of foreplay was texting me "Can we have sex tonight?" And expecting me to be ready to go after 2 minutes of kissing. It was awful.
I am much more satisfied now and I feel that we have a healthy sex life even when we're are in a lower frequency part. We communicate and still have spontaneity.

Well at least it's good to see if my assumption that 3-4 times a week was an active sex life is true or not.
As for us, DH would prefer about once a week. I'd prefer 3-4. In actuality we end up doing it about twice a week. We are happy with the balance we have.

You're missing an answer on your poll for people whose answer varies from week to week or month to month. I think any couple can find it varies for them, but I was particularly thinking of couples where one is often away or military couples where one or both can be away for long periods of time. (And I would also imagine that can be an issue for any couple in which one or both have any medical issues that can make things better for them at some times over another.)

In actuality we end up doing it about twice a week. We are happy with the balance we have. I don't think it matters whether you do it once a day, once a month or even once a year as long as you are both satisfied with the amount. And there lies the problem, striking the balance between you both. Things can change when you've been in a relationship for a long time - libido changes, sometimes due to health or medications. If you aren't too far apart in you ideal then you can strike that balance. I know someone and it sounds like her and her hubby "never" do it and they are both happy with that. But if one of you was at never and the other wanted once a week how do you compromise? By never it sounded like a couple times a year.

Let me just say I really wish DH could quit his blood pressure meds. Wow. It was like a switch turned off.
To be honest my menopause didn't help every much either. :/

I can't believe the noners are in the lead. You would think that with over 5 thousand members that the number who -do it- would be greater than those who -don't do it-. But maybe it means us -don't doers- have more free time to spend on line.

I still maintain that for me and the husband 4 is a very low number of times. Of course that only counts when we're living in the same country!

I wonder how many people over age 50 and married more than 20 years still do it 3-4 times a week or more. I mean if you do, good for you, but if you had asked me this question when I was younger, healthier, still ovulating, in better physical shape and DH was the same other than ovulating, obviously, my answer would be very different.
It's not unusual when you are somewhat newlyweds or in a dating situation, young and attractive and so is your spouse, that you would gravitate toward more frequent sex. I'm surprised at all the zero answers given the diversity of age and marital status of those of us on the board.
It's an interesting question but people have different reasons for having sex or not having sex. I think age and length of marriage does increase or decrease sex frequency overall for the majority. But hey, maybe I'm wrong.

3 to 4 times a week would be fantastic.
Shit I would take 3 or 4 times a month or a year sadly it would be an improvement of my nonexistent sex life of the past 7 or so years it could be longer I try not to think about it because it makes me so sad.

Wonder if it is a Canadian thing? Haha not the Canadians I hang with. I really miss sex but I miss the closeness and intimacy and caring most. Can't remember the last time I was kissed on the lips or got a hug or snuggle. Damn it's pitiful.

But hey, maybe I'm wrong. I think a lot of it has to do with health. I know my sister's answer would be zero. Her husband has COPD and is on oxygen. He can barely walk. My other sister is having health issues of her own and her SO had a stroke 6 months ago.
