About this episode

The episode discusses the impact of menopause on sex drive and challenges the notion that a lack of sex is normal after menopause.

A guy named Paul wrote in. His wife went through menopause three years ago. Since then — almost no sex. And every time he brings it up, she shows him articles and tells him this is just how it is now. So Paul started believing her. Started feeling like a jerk for even wanting it. In this episode I break down what's actually true about menopause and sex drive, why "it's biology" can become a conversation-ender that goes unquestioned, and what men in this situation are getting wrong when they accept the premise without pushing back. If you're in your 50s and feel like your needs have just been medically cancelled — this one is for you. 📖 Get the Dead Bedroom Fix: https://deadbedroomfix.com 🤝 Join the Help For Men Brotherhood: https://helpformen.com/join 📩 The Dead Bedroom Fix App: https://studio.com/ralph/deadbedroomfix?c=bGibj96r
