Armenians and sex: what's your opinion?

Re: Armenians and sex: what's your opinion?

I dunno... 20s were very lax and free and 50s and 60s were the opposite.
Anyway, I don't think he meant that as the definition of traditional because then everyone after the 90s would be non-traditional.

When referring to "the times" it's important to remember what part of the world you're referring to.

Have you taken a look at how un-traditional the world has become since the 90's? However, there will be order out of chaos, it's in the works.

But this is neither here nor there... my mostly rhetorical question was do these "traditional women" (however defined) not think it's important or do they just not discuss it? Basically, I'm highlighting a measurement problem.

They don't discuss it because people's personal lives shouldn't be a subject of discussion. It's "amot" and that's not just an Armenian term, there are certain aspects of life which traditional societies defined to be shameful.

I wouldn't say things were lax for people on the other side of the world who were living on the stomping grounds of WWI.

The roaring 20's in America was similar to what America did after the 9/11 incident.. lent out easy credit and free money to people so they wouldn't have to worry about the hardships of life. This was followed by the stock market crash of 1929 which led to the Great Depression.

So using the American model for happiness, one can conclude that disposable income = better sex?

You can't just pick one thing and attribute to that at the exclusion of everything else. Let's not get side-tracked though... This isn't relevant. You only brought it up seeking to define something that didn't need defining for the point.

Traditional can refer to women prior to the advent of 90210, Friends, Seinfeld and Sex and the City. Basically, brainwashing has a lot to do with it.

You need to be taught to think whether or not you're content matters? It doesn't matter if you enjoy it, you do it to please your husband and/or to have children anyway?
As men, do you really not care whether she enjoys it?
Or is it that "traditional women" are simply taught to not discuss it?

That all depends on how the woman was brought up. If she was brought up to think sex is extremely important, then it would be a significant contributor to the overall relationship. Traditional women aren't usually brought up that way.

You don't pay prostitutes to have sex with you, but to leave after you're done.

Because they'd rather stay with you than make more money?

I thought it was so they can go out to dinner and catch a show after you were done. By the way, I think the movie Pretty Woman glamorized prostitution and made all women legit don't you? lol

Every guy since the dawn of ages has died trying to accomplish this task. I suggest reading the fairy tale "The fisherman and his wife"... it's great for kids and informative for adults!

Ah, it was Mos! Sorry, then.
Fear of shunning might make them conform (though they wouldn't be happier and I get the feeling no one cares if women are happy or not), but I think some would just be secretive.

Yes, some would be secretive, but far less than if it's first come-first serve.

That's not at all what I'm saying. It isn't the most important thing, but it is a significant contributor to overall relationship satisfaction.

Experience with prostitutes isn't exactly "experience" either and if we're shunning women isn't that where men will turn? A prostitute will act like you're the best evar no matter what... It doesn't really help the guy learn to please a woman.

Oh c'mon... it's an orgasm, not a house. She's not going to demand a bigger and better one.
