Children need a mother but a man needs a woman. Here lies the biggest conflict a woman faces, even more so than the conflict between being a mother and a professional. Of course, there are many women who can conciliate both roles with ease. Unfortunately, many cannot.

When my son was very young, and based on my own sexual apathy, I did a "survey" with the women I knew who also had younger children. The result, though sad, was not surprising: not one of them felt like having sex ever again! They were exhausted, wasted, overworked, overwhelmed; they felt unattractive and un-sexy. Well, we all did.

Being as they are, it is not easy for men to live without sex for what seems an eternity, that is, about 2 or 3 months within the birth of a child. Now, the priorities of a mother shift wholly during that time. A baby is all that is required for a woman to trespass the boundaries of womanhood to motherhood. She is now all mother. Sometimes it takes forever for a woman to begin feeling any sexual desire again.

Now, men can accept that for a little while and this is asking already a lot from them; it is pushing, really; though it is an ordeal, they understand and accept their fate bravely.

Now, one may argue that we don’t have the time for this (of course, our inclination is long gone, but a woman does what she must). I answer to that, by paraphrasing a friend of mine: "Time is a matter of preference." There.

A Word of Advice Ladies: If this is a big sacrifice, think of it in terms of giving pleasure. Find ways to enjoy yourself. With focus and concentration you will see that you had more fun than you expected and that it was not totally a waste of sleep.

Gents: A lot of tact is needed here. Lavish her with TLC, I mean, really lots of it, and you will be rewarded big time. You need to be patient, though.
