Should women of men compromise the amount of sex to satisfy their partner?

👩🏻

I posted recently about my husband who has wanted way more sex than me recently. I am pregnant and haven’t wanted sex at all but have tried to compromise by having sex 2 times a week. He doesn’t know this is my “quota” but this is the mental number I try to reach per week to compromise because I believe it’s fair to meet his needs as well.

Some of the posters suggested I should compromise more and have sex more often than that. One posted said my husband would leave me cause I’m not having sex enough. The others said women or men shouldn’t have to compromise with sex and their spouse should understand boundaries and what you want. Some said things between these two opposing sides.

So this made me wonder if a person should compromise the amount of sex they have with their spouse even if they don’t want to have sex at all. I understand all sides. Having sex is a need so I don’t think people shouldn’t have sex at all, but then is it fair to compromise when you don’t want to have sex? I’m conflicted on what I believe so wanted to hear your opinions!
