    manipulation

    it kills me how men always think that NOT HAVING SEX is manipulation. as a woman, you are not obligated to have sex just because your husband wants to. in an ongoing argument, your partner's ugliest behavior can sometimes be all that you can see. isn't it likely that his wife is just not attracted to him or motivated to express her love in a sexual manner in a disagreement? i for one want nothing to do with sex when i'm arguing with a significant other. seeing my man turn into a stubborn little boy definitely kills my sex drive. it is also not out of the question that his wife is turned on by his concession of the argument. simply put, a man can be much more attractive when viewed as patient and understanding to a woman's point of view.
