Well doesn't that sound classier than saying wine makes me horny?
Research so far this year shows that my drive is at an all time high about a week after my lovely time of the month. During this time my husband doesn't really need to work to get me in the mood - I'm pretty much up for anything at anytime. He should know that in this period of time he going to be getting lots of action with minimal effort. I have learned from very smart male readers that is because I am ovulating! During this time I really need no encouragement and there is no thought of sleep first.
This high drive seems to last about a week to 10 days - then it takes a huge dip. This is when I appear to be in my 'sleep is better than sex' mode. Now let me clarify - and I think women will understand this. It doesn't mean that I prefer sleep to sex - it just means that given the choice with my head on the pillow I am picking sleep. When I ignore my desire to sleep I always enjoy the sex - it just takes a little more to get me to want sex. It is the classic "I always enjoy it once we are doing it".
Then I realized last night that wine seems to have the same effect on me as ovulation. I can tell my husband that one step in the right direction during the low drive time of the month is to pour me a glass of wine.
Nothing wrong with a glass of wine to get things going.
ReplyDeleteIt probably helps that you know your high and low times of the month - makes things easier I would assume.
Although alcohol is a depressant and supposed to be bad for sex,especially in excess, my wife seems to like a glass or two of wine first too.
ReplyDeleteI am not a heavy drinker - but with a glass or two of wine, or a few beers I am always ready to roll.
