Today's Trivia Answer

Question: Among the ONE Family, what percentage of couples say the husband has the higher sexual drive?

A. 38%

B. 55%

C. 72%

D. 89%

When we asked the ONE Family which spouse has the higher sexual drive in your marriage, 72% of you said, "the husband."

But what exactly is desire?

For many, it can be defined as a longing, a craving.

Within marriage, it’s often used regarding sexual appetite.

It’s the identification as the “low desire spouse” or the “high desire spouse” that can create an environment full of:

• Bitterness
• Resentment
• Anger
• Guilt
• Frustration

Why do variations in desire even happen?

Well, men and women are wired differently.

❗ There are high desire women and low desire men just as there are low desire women and high desire men.

High desire refers to the person who wants sexual connection/sexual intimacy more than the other.

One myth however that needs to be destroyed is that it’s always the same person who will have high desire or low desire.

Let's address some common sex drive myths so you can enjoy deeper sexual intimacy ⤵️
