It might help if this guy remembered that women are not as visually-oriented as men, and that penises look funny, especially during jumping jacks. I'm hoping I can get that visual out of my head.
Did he consider talking to his wife at any point? Or did he go straight to the internet? I went and read the whole article, and I can't find a point at which he said "so I sat and talked with my wife about it."
It may well be that her focus has shifted. Unfortunately that happens, but it seems to me that the best way to fix that is to actually talk about it. I've learned that most first-time mommies go through this and don't realize it until it's explained to them.
She's probably not going to be happy about blog post, either. Instead of handling this like a rational, mature adult, he's aired a very private problem in the most juvenile and thoughtless way possible, which will make his wife very defensive.

There is no way that this was a serious blog. I mean really. What woman would really be turned on by a man doing naked jumping jacks or who uses the phrase "jump on it"? I simply can't believe this was anything close to serious.

Actually, I think he is very serious, and very much in need of gaining some maturity. I really didn't need to know his patented phrase. That said, I think Amy is a bit off: his marriage isn't sex starved; he's having sex, but wants "a little more".

What he means is that he misses the crazy sex of the early part of their relationship. The initial craziness and infatuation passes, and the character of your relationship changes as it matures. Children bring in yet another phase of a relationship, because it's no longer just about the two of you.

It seems to me that this guy's problem is simple denial. He doesn't want the kid to cause any changes in his relationship. That's just naive, and he needs to wake up before he mucks up a good thing...

What a clueless imbecile. I am assuming a lot of this is tongue-in-cheek (naked jumping jacks? really?) but I do think he is mystified by the fact that a woman with an infant demanding 24 hour care isn't all hot to trot constantly. I wonder if he spent less time working on his body and more time taking care of the baby, if he'd get more sex. I bet so.

For parents, the really hot monkey sex is usually in a hotel, alone, once or twice a year, or if Gma takes the kids for a night.

I am so glad that I m not the only one who thinks this guy has serious maturity issues. I also agree that he is probably not sex starved, just unable to cope with his new reality. The fact is, children change everything...not just sex. They will no longer be free to just get up and go. This takes some time to adjust to for both parents. It is a hard thing to realize that you can longer just please yourself. If you want to run to the store, it has to be planned around naps, feedings, and diaper changes. This is the way it is now. Even sex will need to be scheduled to some extent. It may seem less exciting, but at least you know you aren't losing your connection with each other. Once the kid is older, it will all change again.

I just gotta say that this guy sounds like a real charmer. Ugh. I can not even begin to guess what my reaction would be to some guy doing naked jumping jacks to turn me on. I think somewhere between laughter and revulsion. With techniques like these he is lucky to be getting any sex at all. I must now go bleach my brain to remove these images.

Okay, just read the whole thing... The guy is an actor. That explains sooo much. I am loving the comment thread over there too. Just divorce her..she only wants your money. Ha! The dude is an actor! She is probably the only one with a real job and is supporting him! Especially if he really did gain 40 pounds during her pregnancy. What acting jobs did he have during that time? Was he a stand-in for the white whale?

Ugh. How is it that men still have not gotten the memo that women aren't turned on by the sight of penises? Yeah, this guy seems immature. But I have had male partners who are very mature, both physically and sexually, yet still under this misconception. As evidenced by texting me pictures of dicks thinking it will make me hot (that man had a whole other set of issues though) and reacting with disbelief when I say no, I do not sneak glimpses at men's groins when I am at the sauna here in Germany. That second man actually had class and was a great lover, but he still didn't quite believe me. Probably because I had the highest sex drive of any woman he'd known. However, that does NOT mean I get turned on like a man. I'm a woman, dammit!!

It's all about touch, touch, touch, guys. And letting us know you desire us. Not parading your dick around. If you play it right, I will take care of all the parading around and flaunting of body parts that we could possibly need, thank you very much!

Charlie is now in the internet porn phase of his relationship.

What's astonishing to me is how few people give this any thought before they have kids. I mean, don't any of these people remember being kids, or haven't they ever known anyone else who ever had kids, or even if you never knew any children in your entire life, wouldn't you anticipate this to some extent? So much of this stuff could be alleviated if people would think ahead more than five minutes and plan some coping strategies beforehand.

Certainly there are things about kids such as what their individual personalities that you can't know beforehand. But it is inexcusable for people to plunge into something like parenthood and not at least have some idea what they are getting into. For example, how could anyone be dumb enough to have a kid and then be surprised to find out that kids are expensive? Hello, did you think the Tooth Fairy provided all the diapers?

Pirate Jo,

His complaint is about his wife's sex drive. I think he understood that a kid will change things but a lot of men do not have a clue about how women think. And let's face it, a lot of women don't care about their husbands after the kid is born.

If he had any clues at all about female sexuality, he would be going down on her as much as possible. He has to motivate her into wanting sex with him, obviously, and showing off his dick isn't working. If he freed up some time for her by doing some of the kid stuff, and then set up a nice 1 hour appointment with her where he massaged her (with candles of course-chicks love the candles), went down on her till she came a few times, and that was it (no reciprocation expected), I'm sure she'd be willing to take care of him in the future.

Charlie and Andy have been doing a blog called "How to be a Dad" for some time. Their wives know all about it, and both wives post regularly on the blog.
Like a lot of blogs, they use some artistic license when they write. Some of the things their wives write can certainly be interpreted to be man bashing.
If you go to their blog, you will also find several postings on how awesome their wives are and how much they love them. Charlie once posted a picture of his wife and then new born son, writing about how his wife was the most amazing person he knew and how he was head over heels for her.
I find all of them to be funny and charming, and they write what a lot of patents are thinking. Maybe TMI for some, but I appreciate that they do it.

"If he had any clues at all about female sexuality..."

Can't remember the Sam Kinison joke but it goes something like just tell us what to do, we will do it, we're the ones that f*** you.

And understanding goes both ways. http://www.amazon.com/Lube-Jobs-Womans-Guide-Maintenance/dp/1585425613

I tried massaging my lover with a candle, but it set her hair on fire. It wasn't all my fault though, she's the one that jumped when the hot wax hit her.

"Okay, just read the whole thing... The guy is an actor. That explains sooo much."

Oh, really?

How many of them - actual working actors, that is - have you spoken to?

Dudes, it's a humor blog. He's taking a situation, exaggerating it, and then having fun with it. It's a typical "New Dad" problem (the lady's exhausted, the new baby is terrifying, her ladyparts feel disgusting and alien, so the sex has decreased). He's just playing it for laughs. Ten to one, his wife smiled, rolled her eyes a bit, and said "Don't forget to add how much I love it when you say 'Jump On It'."

That being said, yeah, oversharing is an unfortunate side effect of Internet Blogs.
