Being a guy, I always heard that the male sex drive peaks at around age 19 and the female sex drive peaks at around 38.
I can tell you that age 36, I do not notice much of a change in my own, but the wife only seems interested in it about once a week? When we were dating 18 years ago, it was every night.
When we discuss it, she always tells me that I am pokey when we do because I always seem to be able to wait until she does before I do. But by the time that happens, it is pretty slick...So it takes me a little while longer...Plus, hey, I like it to savor the time...
1. Is it an urban legend about when the female sexual peak is?
2. Is it weird that I can control the "invasion".
3. Will it get better when our 2 kids get a little older ?

The kids are 9 and 6.
I try very hard not to until she does, but when she does, it is so slick that it takes me an additional 20 minutes..So then she gets impatient, then I feel pressured...

I think part of the reason that a woman's sex drive peaks as they get older is because they become more confident and comfortable in their bodies. We also know what buttons need to be pushed to get ourselves excited. I'm only 26, but as I get older I find sex becomes a lot better....I'll tell you one thing, though. Being pressured and begged for sex is the biggest turn off....So, don't do that. :) In fact acting as if you're uninterested might actually get her unexpectidly on top of you one night...
Yeah, it's a little weird that you can control the "invasion"....actually, not so much weird as it is a gift.
I think your kids are past the age of interference...I have a 9 year old and a 2 year old. The little one can really wear me out during the day and still kinda keep me in baby mode. But my 9 year old is very independent. Hardly notice he's even around sometimes....So, your children, at that age shouldn't affect what happens in your bed.

1. I am 32 and I am definitely more interested in sex now than when I was younger. I don't think it is an "urban legend" as you called it.
2. As far as controlling the "invasion", thats not weird. But how long are you talking about? A very long time?
3. How old are your two little kids? That can VERY much affect a person's, especially a woman's sex drive.

all women i know with young kids r like this, we r all so busy and have no time to ourselves, we just have too many worries these days with work, kids and holding things together at home, sex is the last thing on the list. we move away from our families, due to work ect, so this makes it harder to find babysitters, so we can't go out as a couple very often, to keep the romance going, we spend too much time being mummy and daddy and the weeks just fly by, but i have heard that as the kids become more independent, things improve a lot. maybe women did peak at around 38 50 yrs ago or so, but women then didn't have the worries we have
