Frigidity has sexist connotations and is not generally a useful term. E.g., “what a frigid bitch” because a woman didn’t want to get a drink with you. It also signifies disrespect for a woman’s agency to decide who she wants to engage with, particularly when OP talks about “overcoming” frigidity.
This is the same if OP is male or female, SA1.
Frigidity is broadly used to refer to a low libido (sex drive) in women. This term is often used incorrectly to describe a woman who is emotionally cold or does not respond to her partner’s sexual advances.
A lack of sexual desire can be psychologically embedded in a person’s subconscious and linked to greater issues that should be addressed or discussed. In some cases women may experience low libido and refuse or avoid sexual intimacy or they may endure it without being able to reach orgasm, finding little pleasure in the act.
So A1, before you get offended/emotional again, I just wanted to clarify that D1 and I took it as OP is asking advice on a physical(medical) issue of herself that might be related to her anxiety and depression.
Thanks for all the helpful responses. Given the bowl topic it even didn't cross my mind that I might offend anyone by asking the advise for myself.
Don’t be a dick?
Wow....say that to me, and I’ll definitely keep shutting you out.
There are underlying physical, emotional, and mental issues for frigidity. You need a correct diagnosis. For example women with endometriosis can be one of many causes of Frigidity. This can be confirmed by an ultrasound with you MD and may uncover something else.....If the physical checks out clean, move on to the emotional, often related to a past traumatic event. Some self discovery and talking this out with a therapist may move you beyond it. The basics of love making need to be reintroduced kissing, talking, hugging versus a poke and stick mentality. Get rid of all porn, it’s a root cause also.
Thanks for mansplaining and assuming my gender SA1
Accen1, I didnt assume your gender and I didnt mansplain as I am female myself. Great job on assuming my gender.
Lots of therapy - I’m still not totally there, but working on it.
I’m a guy and I suffer from something similar. Except fear rather than low libido. Completely stifles all ability to date.
Would be interested to know if anybody else worked through something similar. I’m currently in therapy, but that’s all I’ve tried so far.
Let's give OP the benefit of the doubt. Of course this comes off as bad, but may be if they elaborate it will make sense?
Haha look at the first two comments; what if OP is the female? This is why it is harder to work with emotional boss.
Apologies if frigid was used in the medical context - I’ve never heard it used that way outside of a textbook, so was a bit snarky in my response.
