My suggestion is to talk things through with your husband so that he knows how you feel. He may have no idea that he is coming on too strong and making you uncomfortable.

It’s your body – not his. If you don’t feel like it then say no and stick to your answer

As Dr Phil says when making an important decision, it takes 2 Yeses or 1 No.

Enthusiastic consent is what’s being taught in schools now! We have to stop breeding these self entitled, disrespectful men and empower women to respect themselves, know their worth and be confident in enforcing boundaries. I’m sorry you’re experiencing this, it’s not okay.

Nope. You have to feel like it too.

Not wrong at all, stand up for yourself.

You are definitely not on the wrong.

We are all different and its lovely that your husband wants you in that way but if its making you feel negative things then you need to discuss this with him.
Some couples dont worry if the woman is bleeding and still get intimate.
The best thing for me was not having to worry about periods after having a hysterectomy.

Your body and mind and your choice and you should be respected at all times.

You’re not wrong to feel the way you do. Communicate with him about how it makes you feel, surely he wouldn’t want you to have this impression of him.
No one should ever feel obligated or pressured into intimacy.

What I see is your hubby just wants to be close to you and feel connected after waiting a week to be close to you, he doesn\’t see you as a piece of meat he just wants to feel the intimacy with you. I get it from your view to but men need the connection with the women they love and they get that though sex. Yes you have the right to say no but he was already waiting to be close to you while you were on your period.

Personally I’m of the opinion you should only have sex when both of you wants to do so

absolute no for your rights and it is your body say strong No.

You are not in the wrong to not want to have sex at any time. It is your body. It seems unfortunate that it seems like something that you don’t really enjoy. It’s not meant to be a chore, but a pleasurable experience. Is there something else underlying this resentment? I could be wrong. Just a thought.

You have every right to say no any day of the year. No one has the right to pressure you to do anything.

You are not in the wrong, any day of the month! You are more within your rights to say no at any moment you please.

You absolutely have the right to say no and he should respect your boundaries. In saying that, you also said you feel like a piece of meat. Maybe address what you need at that time with him, non sexual intimate time for example. Sex for females often needs an emotional connection, so discuss what you need to fulfil that and just maybe you’ll feel more inclined for sexual intimacy too.

Absolutely not wrong. Never apologize for wanting autonomy and respect in your personal choices. Everyone has different boundaries and preferences, and it’s crucial for partners to communicate and understand each other’s needs. Your feelings and boundaries deserve respect.
