Most of the time I feel like my partner wants more sex (and has more stamina for it) than I do. I was wondering just how common this phenomena was, so I thought I'd take a quick poll. I know I'm leaving out the LGBTQ community, but for this poll I'm just trying to gather information about heterosexual relationships.
Would you say that there's a discrepancy in the amount of sex that you want vs the amount of sex your partner wants?
And if so, does it bother you or cause problems in your relationship?

I'm a man and my partner wants sex more often than I do
I'm a woman and my partner wants sex more often than I do

It ranges for us. We take turns being the one with the higher sex drive. It just happens.

We may not always want it at the same moment, but if one wants it, they can bring the other around in seconds. Just the right move or look. As for the amount of desire....it is about equal. We are both very physical and sexual.

(Just for the record, I'm pansexual but my husband is straight, and we're in a hetrosexual relationship) Hubby tends to want it so much more than I do. He even sometimes bugs me about it until I scream at him X'D. Then he's like: Ok ok I'll stop asking now. Wanna do it?
That's when he gets hit on the arm. My sex drive has gone down lately, and I'm not sure why, maybe it's because I'm stressing at the moment.

Your voting doesn't have an option for me. I am a woman who wants sex far more than my male partner.

You guys are right. I'm sorry that I left out more options. I was a bit tired when I made this poll and I didn't realize my mistake right away.
If I made a new poll with more voting options, would you still be interested in participating?

I didn't vote because I can honestly say I've never not wanted it at any pt and initiated it quite a bit. I've been turned down more than a few times, kind of weird but true. I feel like I Have a way higher drive then most of the men I date. The last relationship I was in I started getting kind of peeved because we started only having sex once a night instead of 2-3 like we used to. Not every night mind you but when we were together.
