Being Sexually Deprived in a Sex-Saturated Culture (everybody's talking about it, nobody's doing it)

According to the popular television personality and psychologist, Dr. Phil --* who wades through the intimate details of his guests' as well as his professional clients' lives -- there is an epidemic of "sexless marriages" these days. His observations coincide with recent articles in popular magazines like Time and Newsweek and in more upscale journals like The Atlantic, Salon, Psychology Today and First Things. In the midst of a sex-saturated culture, overflowing with dramatic images of the female anatomy, a new phenomenon has developed: men losing interest in sex.
Even the prolific political columnist, Mark Steyn has weighed in, asking, "Do you notice anything shriveling?" In his essay, he reports that the lack of sexual enthusiasm has even extended to the Netherlands, a place known for sexual permissiveness. Now, according to the ANP news agency, "the Dutch now derive more pleasure from going to the bathroom than from sex." So much for "free" love.

The story goes . . .
When a couple are first married, they can’t get enough of each other. They have sex every day, sometimes more, and in every room of the house, outdoors, in the car, etc.
After several years, they have sex once or twice a week, in the bedroom, the living room, or the shower.
After two or three decades, it’s 6 or 7 times a year in the bedroom.
After 40 or 50 years, they just flip each other off while passing in the hallway.
