    Lesbian Bed Death - truth or myth? The claim is that lesbian couples in a long term relationship have less sex than other types of couples - how true is this and what does this mean for lesbians?
    We'd love to hear your thoughts on the topic, is lesbian bed death a reality, and why is it even a thing?
    Thank you for watching!

    On behalf of all long term lesbian couples: thank you so much for addressing this.
    My wife and I have been together for 10 years. We certainly don't have sex like we used to but it's just not as important to us. We "make love" and connect in so many other ways, like doing things for each other, cooking, washing each other's hair, cuddling, etc.
    We just don't get the urge like we used to and are often too damn tired for all that! But when we do get the urge we are very open with each other about it and it is always an amazing 1-2 hours LOL.
    I think society places too much emphasis on sex, but if your relationship is healthy in every other aspect, what's the issue?

      Thank you, thank you, thank you K Dilli..... 'and connect in so many other ways ' it all starts with emotion. When ur a team... when ur there for one another it cuts straight to the soul. If you fail to connect emotionally.... forget about the sex.

    After 22 years with my partner, I can tell you there is no such thing as lesbian bed death. Sure there are dry spells (forgive the pun) because life gets in the way. I'm glad you broached the subject. I think the myth started in this Patriarchal society in which we live. ( "they must be roommates or sisters") We've all heard that nonsense before. Thank you for Snack Chat and Thank you for your candor.

    Sex is not important to me at all. I have multiple reasons for that: naturally pretty low libido; my bed-appetites are very small; I'm not a fan of getting naked in front of anyone because I have some problems with ED. I value chats and quality time more than any physical interaction. First of all, my person should be my mental safe-space, that's what brings me joy and creates a very strong attachment. But everything else - even cuddles - are at the bottom of my list.
    Sometimes I feel a little ashamed, that everyone around me seems to be hyper sexually active, and I'm not interested in it that much. It feels like I'm problematic. But hey, everybody's different, I'm trying to remind myself that

    Sex isn't that important to me in a relationship. Intimacy/sensuality/connection is more important. I also think sex declines after a few years for a lot of people for a variety of reasons, one being that I think in the beginning you're still trying to impress eachother in a way and still proving you're a 'good,' partner so the relationship feels more locked in, and once it's locked in, and one feels secure, then people have sex on a more natural rhythm of when they want to and have energy too, rather than to simply ensure the relationship is 'good,' by societal 'how often do we have sex,' standards. Hard to explain but hopefully that made sense lol Other reasons it goes down is they simply connect deeply in other ways and feel fulfilled even when having sex less, or on the opposite end, they aren't truly compatible and have hardships in the relationship so it causes distance and lack of wanting to be intimate. So it could be for good reasons, neutral reasons, or not so good reasons, that people start to have sex less in relationships. Regardless, for me, as long as the connection is strong, that's all the matters to me.🙏🏼

    I actually had this conversation with my girlfriend a few weeks ago and the conclusion we both agreed on is that lesbian sexe takes a lot of time and energy. It is not like most straight sexe that ends after a couple of minutes. I mean.. maybe its just me but sexe always last at least 45 min and thats a minimum. So yeah, sometimes we don't have sexe for a while because of a lack of libido but other times its more about the fact that we dont have the energy to. Lesbian sexe is a commitment I swear 😂

    I would add a third component. The menstrual cycle! Bc as you said the libido is mostly higher around the ovulation and lower when not ovulating. And for some or a lot of same sex couples the two women will not have a synchronized cycle, so they’ll be “in the mood” at different times. Definitely think that this is a part too.

    Thank you for doing this segment. Also, love the Snack Chat idea. I watch your videos because I’m a new member to the community. I’m 42 and only found my fiancé 9 months ago. (I know, typical lesbian being engaged (will be married in 3 weeks) only 9 months in😁) She is the only woman I’ve ever dated or been with. But when you know, you know! Anyway, I find your videos very informative. She has told me about this though. We are 900 miles apart and will be for the next 3 years. So, when we do see each other, the passion is still very much there. But we have had this conversation about this subject. We believe it’s all personal preference on how two people find connection. We try to verbalize our appreciation for all the ways we connect, that way we don’t take them for granted. Anyway, Thank you for sharing so much of yourselves with us. Praying your new adventure in life is beautiful! 🙏🏻

    I recently read 'Sex at Dawn' (by Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jetha) and 'Untrue' (by Wednesday Martin), and I would highly recommend both books. What was interesting from both these books is that, according to new trends in evolutionary biology (and studies increasingly seem to confirm that), women seem to crave sexual novelty more than men. Whilst it isn't true that women have a lower libido than men, it does seem that women lose their sexual interest faster when sex has become boring/predictable/disconnected, while men in general are less choosy. So perhaps that could also be a reason for lesbian bed death? If a connection has become predictable, perhaps women faster lose interest.

    • @Plottoberry

    Thanks a lot for this new video. In my last lesbian couple experience, which just ended, my ex-partner and me had talks about this. There was a very big difference between us. That for me sex and desire was important in my relationship but not for her. We had less and less sex when she began to practice vipassana meditation. I don't practice it but for me practicing yoga everyday, painting, walking in nature and dancing are a kind of meditation. In my opinion, this wasn't a good reason to end the relationship , she couln't understand i needed time and space for myself. Everything had to be share, i even almost stopped listening to music when she was there because she wanted silence and had to deal with her each time i wanted to dance at home. That killed my spontaneity with her. I think if two people can understand and respect each other without loosing themselves in the other, desire and sex can live. At least i realised how much my way of living was precious to me and that feelings and sex are a part of my life that i can't deny. I keep your link Beducated. Have a beautiful life in Nederlands ;)

    Well, first of all, thanks for talk about this. I have had only 2 relationships in my life, both lesbian relationships and both lasted 3 years, maybe a little bit more. And, in fact, in both of them I lacked sex, at least, the last year in them. I didn't know about the term "Lesbian bed death"! and now that you talked about it, I don't know if it's something that always will happen in a lesbian relationship, but I think it's more probably to happen, because, in my opinion, as a women we do not have the same sexual necessities as the men have. Yes, of course we like sex and we do have sexual necessities, but I think for men the topic is something more essential than for us. Nevertheless, from my experiences I will look after the sexual aspect on my next relationship because, although it is more important for me the emotional connection and the commitment, sex is a way to keep the "romantic" connection. It shows attraction and passion. It is something that reminds you that both of you are not only friends, but girlfriends! In this respect, it is an aspect that differentiates romance from friendship. If we do not take care of this, it would feel like "we are just friends or roommates" and that's horrible! Love requires responsabilities and demonstrations to keep it alive and strong, and for me, sex is part of the way you care your romantic love link with your partner. Of course, it is normal to not have sex with the same frequency as at the beginning, but certainly, it is a something that it should not be neglected. Thanks for the snack chat!

    I love that you're talking about this and love "snack chat"! I just finished reading "Come As You Are" by Emily Nagoski and highly recommend it. The book helped me understand that there's different ways to experience desire and libido, and neither is wrong - there's spontaneous desire, responsive desire, some folks have highly sensitive accelerators, others more sensitive brakes. And one thing I wanted to point out is that men having higher libidos is actually not true, Emily points that out again and again, just another societal myth.

    Loving the snack chat & I'll bet you'll both be glad when the quarantine finishes! I think sex is essential to a relationship no matter how long you've been together. It's important to make an effort to have sex regularly because if you stop It's so very much harder to start it up again especially after a long time lapse. Personally I think a relationship without sex is just like having an intense friendship, its not a whole relationship.

    It would be really interesting if someone could make a diverse study on this issue, an all sorts of couples and relationships, gather info, analyse it and help all of us get past this apparent hurdle.
    I am sure many relationships (which other than the lack of sex, would have no trouble) could be revitalised if the partners could re-ignate that flame.

After a year when we got to do it unfortunately I wasn't able to let her. And it eventually led to our breakup. I still love her and if not for the sex we would still be together. So yeah it's very important and a relationship would die without it.

    Hi, very interesting topic ! I agree with everything you highlighted. I am in a LDRelationship with my girlfriend for 2 years. We see eachother about once a month. We still have the same amount of sex, like it didnt change since the beginning, its regular. But every time it lasts 1 hour or so, it takes a lot of time and energy, so it is not practical (because of work, sport, and other activities of the everyday life). We spent two quarantines together (here in France there were 2 quarantine, one during 2 months and one during 1 month) and I remember that during the quarantine, we had less sex than usual whereas we had more time ! Strange haha. By the end of 2021, we are going to live together in the same place, so let's see if the routine reduce our sex life !

    Relationship sex is important.
    Only not in this way to satisfy your needs, desires and the end, but to experience it together. Don't put pressure. I mean selfishness. Look at these things anywhere.
    There was no sex in my relationship so it broke up.

    It's interesting how hormones have to do a lot with our libido. I've always had a high testosterone level, so high in fact that I have to take birth control pills to "balance out" my hormones. I also have a very high libido. I thinks those two factors are related.

    I am in a long term relationship from 2 years and 6 months with a guy who is 9 years older than me. We are both bisexual, so it's almost the same thing you described for lesbians. I mean that, when we have a really deep emotional and mental connession, the "sex part" goes pretty bad, and I think maybe this happens also because we miss experimenting homosexual things. In my opinion, also the fact that he is older plays an important role, because sometimes he lacks of energy or he's mentally tired and stuff like that.
    And the boredom of this historical period doesn't help a lot, don't you think?
    Anyway, thank you for your amazing videos and sorry for my really bad english, fortunally Lilian lived in Italy so she can understand IL MIO INGLESE MACCHERONICO !
    I wish you a lot of luck and fun in Netherlands! :) bye bye

    Love this, a lot of important points and opening for good discussions!
    It's a bit reductive to say lesbians though, I'm bisexual and most of my parents have been bisexual/pansexual women. Maybe WLW (women loving women) might be a term to explore? Just a thought.

    I relate that with the natural repression of sex being a woman. We weren’t brought up being incentivated to being sexual women, to have the right to have pleasure in sex, to considerate that as something normal and happy. Of course, people have different amount of libido or don’t think sex is important for them, but I guess this is what is special between a couple. How they conect physically, how they show love having sex.

    Great topic! My must have is emotional monogamy... that is to say I need to know you better than perhaps your own mum. Anything else is negotiable. Thus, if we get out of rhythm, the situation can be discussed and solutions for both of us found.
    I’m a fan of super-kissing... and vibrators as both men & gals swear they can get me to the big O. I wear them out cuz I’m that 5% needing electrical help😌

    For lesbians, gays, hétéros or whatever : same same ! As long as people are happy together, with or without sex, it does not make any difference : be together and enjoy life. And whatever is or is not happening at one point does not mean that it will be like that forever… Life is not perfect flat line.

    I feel like after starting a hormonal contraception I started to experience a decline in my sexual needs. I just don't think about sex that much and it makes me feel so tired to try and get myself in the mood 😅 I do get my fulfillment from other sides of the relationship. I am in a straight relationship so I think that my partner's very high libido definitely is the only reason we are still having sex on the weekly.

  • @isitmondayet
    @isitmondayet 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not sure if anyone still says this... but, 30 years ago there was a thing which said, "if you put a quarter in a jar every time you have sex in the first year of a relationship, and then every year thereafter remove a quarter when you have sex - you'll never remove all the quarters for the rest of the relationship." I just presumed they anticipated a divorce. Giddy-up!

    I was never into sex until I realized I was gay. And I could never NOT be into sex now that I’m aware and aligned with my true self. It’s only when I get out of alignment that my libido takes a vacay. When two people are misaligned with themselves, it’s pretty much impossible to be aligned with each other. There won’t be much sex happening at that point, especially in a lesbian relationship. deep thoughts while I’m stoned and really missing sex right now, lol.

    Sex favorable ace here! I view sex as a bonding activity just like cuddling. To me, the vulnerability and trust that two people express during sex is the true beauty of the activity. Though I don’t have urges myself, I think that it’s still a wonderful way to express that you care about someone without the need for words.

    I definitely think that sex is important as it’s a way to show your mutual attraction to each other, that extra spark just between two people. When I was in a long term relationship, unfortunately I experienced some sort of lesbian sex death. But I was much younger than my girlfriend at the time so maybe I was a bit more “needy” ha ha, and often felt that if I didn’t initiate the “ambiance” it wouldn’t necessarily happen, which was somehow frustrating at times !

    hi - great video. Just a heads up, from a professional psychologist and sextherapist: when we talk about mental health we've finally understood to plug in that it's important to go seek aid from a professional. It'd be wonderful if next time you plug in your sex-related sponsor, also plug in to go seek that same aid from a professional sextherapist, sexologist, etc. The sponsor you mentioned is truly a great platform for learning, stimulating exploration - but it can't accompany an individual into ones own journey (and obstacles). Besides that - thank you for the great video !!

    To me, sex is an incredibly important part of a relationship. However, I'm hetero, and I've been with the same man for 17 years and we still try for at least twice a week, sometimes more if we can, but it's hard because we also have 3 children. There are ebbs and flows for sure, but sex is important to both of us. Sometimes we have sex 2X a day, but that doesn't happen very often. It's still fun though, and we still love each other very much and are very passionate for each other even after all this time.

    I relate a lot with this video, although I am not in a long-term relationship (me and my gf have been together for 1 year and a half). I am not sure if this is a thing that many couples felt, but I personally feel that quarantine really affected my sexual life. Me and my girlfriend started dating in the beginning of 2020, so our whole relationship happened in this crazy pandemic situation in which we can't meet our friends or live our love freely in the world, which I believe is a very important thing (going places with your partner, etc)... Loving someone between four walls for a year and a half has been very challenging for us, especially for my libido...
    And is not only about the fact of quarantine itself, bc me and my gf live in Brazil, so here it's also about the disillusion of seeing everything about your country falling apart and such horrifying news we receive everyday. Anyway, I think that relates a lot with what Lilian said, that sometimes we have phases of zero libido, and other times phases of high libido. It's interesting because, in my case, we never had this "honeymoon phase", as quarantine twisted things and so since the very beginning we were living this married-way life. We always joke about it, wondering if maybe when the quarantine is over we will experience this moment that the majority of couples live in the beginning of their relationship.

    Hi :) my girlfriend are in a relationship for more than 3 years now. We definitely have issues with sex but for various reasons. She has a higher libido than I do and its more important to her. I have a very low libido, also due to depression, anti-depressants and trauma. So lots of issues built up over time. Apart from that we‘re doing great and we‘re working on the sex part. It‘s nice to hear that others are dealing with similar things cause usually you just hear about couples haven’t lots of sex and what the standard amount should be… And yes I agree lesbian sex is a commitment ;) Once it happens it’s definitely gonna be a few hours or a whole day in bed ;) so kinda hard with a busy schedule

    And if you add kids into the equation, regardless of their age, sex life goes to zero. And it really doesn't have to be such a bad thing. As long as neither of the partners feels unfulfilled of course

    Love this video idea! 💘 I am a cisgender bi woman in a new relationship, and sex is honestly crucial for me. Significant physical touch, particularly when it is punctuated with some delicious mutual orgasms, is one of the best ways to connect with your partner. It obviously waxes and wanes over time, but it is also a great stress reliever to get you through life's ups and downs. Consent and being GGG should be a given at all times as well.

  • @nadiaventer3380
    @nadiaventer3380 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    My opinion is that sex is what makes a romantic relationship different from a friendship, and it does make a deeper connection between two people, my 8 and a half year relationship ended because of this, the problem comes in when one wants sex and the other can't be bothered by sex, it is really sad, and sex between two people who love each other is such a beautiful thing, and I can't understand why it is so difficult for some people to be intimate, it must come naturally, a relationship takes a lot of work from both sides, and you have to keep the spark alive, otherwise it will fade and end badly.
