I'm not on his side but remember men are different from women. Women have nothing to lift, men do and sometimes work stress or simply tiredness could affect his "lifting abilities". I can think of something that might help get him going.
Buy yourself a sex toy and show him. Tell him this will be replacing him when he just cannot satisfy you. Many times the man's ego and pride take over, its worth the try.
Well if you haven't bought a toy yet I'm not sure what your waiting for, Its not really his fault you have different sex drives, so it sound like you need to satisfy your self when hes not available.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
