What good does it do for the women? Are you saying men are the ones that suffer when we don't get sex and women don't really need sex?

Woman are jerks that way sometimes. I have never done that to my hubby. If I want to punnish him, I leave him with all three kiddos.lol. No, I do not the reason behind treating men like children and "punnishing" them. Woman do need sex or they turn into mean fridged woman.

What else would get the guys' attention? Are the guys holding out on money or affection or respect when they get mad?
Women typically can go for longer without sex than men, particularly since they can get faster orgasms alone.
Another theory is that women see sex as a way to celebrate a human connection and men see it as a way to make a human connection. Women just aren't turned on by feeling hurt or angry. If true, women would always be less likely to want sex with someone they're mad at because it would be like lying, where guys would want sex to make up.

Its not necessarily about holding out. If I was really mad at someone I wouldn't want to have sex with them because sex is an expression of intimacy. If you are having a fight you probably don't feel very close to the person at that moment.
It would personally take a big fight for me to get that mad. I think with some women they might feel like that's the only way to get through to a guy though.
I don't think its that girls don't need sex. As long as the sex is good, I need it and want it just as much if not more than him!

They do it simply because they can. Women want sex just as much as men, but unfortunately for us men a woman can hold out longer than we can. Sex only happens when a woman wants it to. At the same time a lot of women want to to be special and meaningful and not just sex. When you get mad at someone you sometimes will do thing intentionally to get back at the person. While I may not agree with this tactic, it is quite effective. The beauty of it for the woman is that the man cannot do the same thing..which again is unfortunate for us men. It also should make the man think about why she is mad and try to remember it so that it doesn't happen again.

i have heard women say things like "i'll show him, he won't get any," when they are mad at their significant other.... so you are right, there are some women are guilty of playing games -- at least that's what i think it is, a POWER GAME.
games aren't healthy in relationships. i know that when i am mad or feel disrespected i do not want to share that intimacy with him. it's not a game, it's real emotion. sex in a relationship is an expression of emotion, when i'm upset i don't want to show that particular emotion. other times, however, i think i do want to make love after an argument to re-connect. i know that sounds corny, but it's true.
i would never say men are the only ones that suffer & that women don't need sex... NO WAY. sex is an important expression of intimacy & love in a relationship, i think in some relationships the woman wants it more.

Well, you pretty much hit the nail on the head with your last statement. Women in general do not require sex or think about sex as frequently as men. When women are angry, they are less likely to be "in the mood". Sometimes it has nothing to do with the guy and everything to do with her and her feelings. And don't think that having sex with her will fix things. Her resentment will only build.

I can't speak for other women, but I know that when I am angry, the last thing that I want is sex. It's not about using sex as a weapon, I'm simply not in the mood. I don't know why men can't understand this :-)

For women sex is an emotional thing. If you are mad at the person you love, you just do not feel like having an intimate relation with them at that time. Its not like a punishment but just emotionally not what you want. Things need to be talked about and settled inorder for emotions to be balanced and to feel intimate again.

It is a control thing - and men do need sex more than women.

Its a control thing.
Punishing you spouse is not acceptable because they are your equal, but with holding sex is a way women can try and punish us. My wife used to try and dangle the carrot of sex to get me to do things, but then I said "nah, I would rather keep my money." Now I keep about 33% of my paycheck for my own use. Granted I still help pay the bills, but my wife has to proved her fair share.

well im a woman and i dont do that to my hubby, sex to me is in a totally different class than an argument, i never deny my hubby and he does not deny me, agrguments can end but when you let it go so far as not giving sex because of an argument , that to me is stupid, sex actually releases the anger & frustration in an argument, as least for us it does,.life is too short to miss out on a beautiful physical relationship with your mate, sex is not a game, or a weapon , like most people see it as.
