Let’s see, what was the problem in this marriage here, shall we??? From the Front Page Sections, translated…
A married woman, Lin complained on how for ten years she’d been married to her husband, she could count the times she and her husband had sex with her hands, and that they’d become like roommates, she’d asked the courts to grant her a divorce. The husband who’s a government worker explained, that when he felt like it, it was usually in the mornings, that his wife couldn’t comply with the time, that his passions were put out. The Shihlin District Courts believed, that not having sex enough time does not mean that he’s distancing himself from her on purpose, Lin had moved away on her own, for two years now, that the love had died was not just her husband’s fault, and stated that they were to stay married.
This couple had lived in a high-rise apartment with the woman’s side of the family after they were wed, Lin had asked for a divorce, her mother testified, that she’d confirmed, that she’d not gotten pregnant, after times of grilling her own daughter about it, she’d told her, “I’m not the problem, your son-in-law is!”, Lin’s husband denied the accusations, stated, that they’d had sex every single month, but, living with her parents gave him NO sense of intimacy whatsoever, and he was under enormous pressure too constantly.
He’d told, that his urges usually happen in the morning, and needed the visual and touching stimuli, but as he’d gazed upon his wife’s body, she’d scolded him, “Turn around, don’t look at me”; he’d hoped, that his wife can be more open, but, communicating his needs to her just isn’t working out.
He stated, that in order to find a living space where the elders won’t intrude in on them, he’d searched for a new residence for a long while, and three years ago, the new place was remodeled, but, his wife told him, “I can’t live with you anymore”.
Lin wondered, these couple of years, they’d flown abroad on trips together, dined out at gourmet restaurants, gone on movie dates every now and then, how can there be NO interactions. The judge believed that the number of time they’d shared intimacies with one another was affected by multiple factors such as work, environment, stress from the families, and, for a long time, Lin had been living as neighbors of his in-laws, that this may have been the sole source of pressure and stress, causing his libido to lower, that it couldn’t be decided, that he’s not fulfilling his duty as her husband, based off of the number of times they’d shared intimacies together; Lin had once gone to an urologist, to show, that he’d cared about his reproductive abilities, that Lin’s asking for a divorce was tossed back.
So, from this, you can see, that not doing it enough won’t work as an excuse for ending a marriage, but, sex is an important factor, in keeping the marriage, although it’d been, emphasized in importance, but, not having enough of it, DOES put a damper on the marriage, but sometimes, we just don’t feel like it, and you LOSERS should RESPECT us in that, and this is still NOT just the man’s fault either, because a marriage is still, a matter of T-W-O!!!
