I think perhaps you generalize too much. I have never done that nor would I. It is a cheap maneuver for a woman to use such tactics.
My opinion.

There is no better weapon! Think of all the emotions that take place when people interact. However, arguing or confrontation of any kind involves an enormous amount of physical, mental and emotional stress. As a woman, I believe "cutting someone off" that you love hurts both parties. Also, I think the idea of restraining oneself is about power and control. If that happens a lot, I would certainly do a reality check on my relationship. For me, the alternative weapon should be honesty and open communication and then some old fashion making up.!

Put it simply: men are visual so no matter their feelings, they can and will still have sex; women are emotional, so if they feel hurt, angry, etc, they can't and won't have sex.
I had used this tactic on my ex, especially when I found out about all of his affairs and I decided to leave him. I have never done that with my boyfriend I have now, tho. I had 'threatened' it the other night, but he knew and I knew that I wouldn't do that. We have a way of joking and putting things so we both know it isn't true. If I were serious about it, I wouldn't have been laughing. He knows this. Doing this to a partner, either sex doing it, is a form of punishment. The other sex may not see it that way, but it is.
Please do not put all women in the same group when talking about things because not all of us do the same things as other women.

Not all women do this. When used inappropriately, this technique is mostly used by women who feel powerless and see this as their only choice. This is also used by some who are either immature or who delight in torment (playing games).
The appropriate situation is this: Since making love is a expression of deeply felt emotions with partner, then anything which disrupts the emotions, will disrupt the willingness to make love. If this is a personal question, then you must make amends and get your relationship back on track if you expect to get your life back.
If this happens to you frequently, then you need to determine what personal trait or attitude you display that pisses off the woman (women) in your life.

The simple answer: Because men (by nature) do not play by the same "social rules" that women do, and sex is literally the ONE thing that a women can control that a man can be guaranteed to negotiate for.
Women are very relational, by mere fact of brain wiring; and females interact in a "web" of relationships. It's where their real power lies. To be "cut off" from other women is often the ultimate wound. (You see that sort of power play happening all the time among women.)
A woman places herself under many constraints socially, in how she can interact -- it's why we see lots of women stressed over holiday get-togethers with family (due to all the expectations that "have to" be fulfilled), of not approaching conflict directly in the workplace, and so on... all while the guy shakes in head in confusion. He just doesn't get it.
Women often get hurt because they expect a man to play by the same "rules" in the relationship that women do... but the man doesn't. He doesn't even understand them, even when she explains why she can't do something a certain way or why what he did was emotionally hurtful. The man is invulnerable to those stipulations.
But he does inevitably want sex. So withholding sex is the one sure way of getting the man's attention of how seriously he has hurt you or let you down, and it makes him take your claims and desires seriously even if he doesn't understand them.
I would also say that withholding sex occurs naturally when someone has been hurt. If I was female and felt like a guy did not respect me, didn't care how I felt, had hurt me badly without apologizing, and doesn't take my feelings seriously, the emotional hurt from that would prevent me from wanting to have sex with him.
Why would I want to give myself to someone who I thought was just using me and would ignore me afterwards?

Hmm. Being a woman, I personally have never done that to the man in my life. I have a rule that we don't go to bed mad. I always try to talk about what it is that made me mad. I might lash out at first, but always take the time to reflect upon what happened. In regards as to why some women do that, I think it is because we know how much you men think of sex and how much it means to you. So maybe that is her way of making herself think she is in the right.. and subsequently, winning the arguement. Good luck on that one pal. If it is such an issue, maybe she isn't the right woman for you. That is always a possibility.

Because they feel that they are so vulnerable that it is the only weapon left they have. Its a form of punishment that is hard to control. It's an easy retaliation- instead of doing something to inflict pain back to you for whatever reasons you have pissed her off, she simply doesn't GIVE.

Because men don't usually understand anything else and aren't willing to listen. Women tend to feel that is all you want from them, so if you aren't willing to participate in any other part of their being other than sexually why should you have that benefit! Try seeing a woman as a "whole" person, with many other attributes, feelings and emotions, other than her sexual being and you may get somewhere.

when it come to issue of sex, women are more reserved and can control the huge for sex but men are uncontrollable and can not hold the huge of having sex when they really met to have it.
women know this weak side of men and most of the women use that to punished their men when they are pissed off.

Because that is where it hurts. If my husband ever did something that bad and I strongly disagreed with it and i wanted him to know I was serious I would cut sex off to. Basically to make our point .
