Men's household habits can destroy women's libido, study shows

Fatigue, stress, disrupted hormonal balance, and lifestyle can all contribute to a decrease in libido. Recent research, however, suggests that men might also play a role. There is one particular type of man who can make women lose their desire for sex.

American-Canadian scientists decided to investigate why women at some point no longer want to have intercourse with their partners. To this end, experts studied individuals from various countries and shared their findings in the scientific journal "Archives of Sexual Behavior". Their observations may be surprising.

There is no denying that long-term couples usually do not have sex as often as they did at the beginning of their relationship. This could be related to numerous factors. Sometimes, women are not happy with their bodies after pregnancy, are tired, or stressed. Few women at that moment analyze their partner’s behavior, which according to scientists, can have a significant impact on libido.

Experts have determined that when all household duties fall on the woman, the man significantly loses attractiveness in her eyes. Taking care of the house, doing the shopping, and even relieving the partner of mundane tasks like scheduling his doctor's appointments can affect the attraction.

Interestingly, many women may not even realize this. When wondering why they don't feel like having sex, they often blame only themselves.

If you are dealing with a man who behaves like a child, it is worth having an honest conversation with him. Often, the other party did not previously see any problem; hence, it is essential to clearly communicate your expectations and needs.

Unfortunately, we cannot read minds, so if we do not tell our partners what we truly feel, they may never figure it out. If the conversation does not go as planned, it might be helpful to seek professional assistance.
