Sex ‘For Better or Worse’ Is Not Work
Men are Easy - Lynn Rasmussen
Spark the flames during this week of love

No matter how hot the passion at the start of a relationship, at some point the excitement wears off, says Men are Easy author Lynn Rasmussen.  This year, during National Marriage Week and Valentine’s Day, take some time and figure out what works for you and decide to consciously start making time for sex.

“Although routine sex may sound unromantic and boring,” Rasmussen says, “There is nothing boring about a great orgasm, while familiarity in many things can lead to boredom, sex can offer a lifetime of surprising discoveries.”

In the day to day rush of life, the clear difference between a man and a woman’s sexuality comes shining through: a man gets closer with sex and a woman needs to feel closer to have sex.

A woman has to have sex to feel close again, but after some time passes, she doesn’t feel close enough to him to have sex. It’s now time to just do it, in the mood or not. Only sexual connection will meet your needs and get your juices flowing again.  So at times you may just have to forget spontaneity.

In Men are Easy, Rasmussen says what’s making you cranky isn’t that he isn’t turning you on.  It’s that you haven’t taken care of yourself.  You haven’t scheduled sex and then put some attention into it.  Tell him what works for you sexually.  When sex is working, no matter how bad things get you will have that haven, that intimate space where no one else goes.

According to the National Health and Social Life Survey, the average American married couple has sex from twice a week to twice a month.  Most men are willing to cook, clean. or do almost anything else if sex and good feelings are in place.

It will take two conscious adults to achieve profound sexual experience from the chaos of an evolving life.  At times watching TV or reading a book may seem more stimulating, but making the effort pays off.  It grounds you in your physical self and it increases your connection with your man.  Deep bounding sex provides the energy and hope that everything will work out, that ultimately, even when life is at it’s worse, you are in this life together.

Don’t underestimate the power of orgasm.  Orgasm requires attention, intimacy, trust, openness and energy.   Reaching orgasm requires breaking down resistances, and the layers of thinking that separate you from the core of your physical being.  It’s moving past thoughts like “I don’t have time for this” or “I’m too fat”  Of course, it’s hard to get there when the baby cries, or the boss is requiring overtime.

But the conscious cultivation of your sexuality is a reminder of whom and where you are and what is important and what is not.  It is the place where you find each other again.  Mature sex is about finding yourself with a loved, trusted man.

Schedule intimate time together on purpose and you’ll both be happy that you did.

Animal training applied to man training is not a new discovery. Amy Sutherland wrote a much-emailed, right on essay in the NY Times, What Shamu Taught Me about a Happy Marriage. A recent number of books have been published on how to train your husband like you train your dog.

Think about this:
In dog training classes, who is being trained?
It seems to me that the dog is just fine. The poor thing is just wondering what in the world the owner wants.

I have no idea what’s going on with the preorders on Amazon. Torture. They don’t tell until pub date, which is the availability date, and that’s March 1st. So on that date it will have a higher ranking. I did make $12.36 on Amazon referral fees from some sales in December. Someone clicked through and bought a size 5 pair of GOGO Angel Spike patents. Wow.
