While wives deserve to derive as much pleasure from the sexual relationship as their husbands, do we gain anything by keeping score in the bedroom? Does it have to be a precise one-to-one ratio of “I have to orgasm as often as you ejaculate?” Is this even logistically feasible in light of the fact that it often takes approximately 10 times longer for a woman to achieve orgasm as it does for a man? Sometimes quickies are the only way for a busy couple to make a sexual connection, and yes, men are often the better beneficiaries of such an experience, but does that mean the wife loses? No, it means she’s a winner! It means she’s a sexually generous wife who doesn’t keep count, and what better way to inspire her husband to invest plenty of energy into her orgasm when time allows?
If you’d like to focus on becoming more sexually generous, I highly recommend Lori Byerly’s book, The Generous Wife, along with her husband Paul’s book, The Generous Husband. Also, check out their website at www.the-generous-wife.com. You’ll find some great stuff there!
Wishing you generosity in the bedroom, Shannon
