And there are also some who believe that sex is the only thing they are good at or that sex is the only way they can feel good. Sex is the solution to too many needs and situations. A man who uses sex to express and experience many nonsexual emotions is going to want sex a lot more than someone who also has other ways of expressing these feelings. Fear of closeness and vulnerability. Although such fears can be an obstacle to sexual desire and willingness, they can also have the opposite effect.
Some men use sex as a distancer.
Instead of engaging in intimate conversation or affectionate touching short of sex, activities that make them feel exposed and fearful, they resort to sex, an activity they feel safe with. Inability or unwillingness to control erotic desire. I have known men who felt a lot more sexual interest than that of their partners but it never became an issue. They understood they could never satisfy every sexual impulse and restrained themselves accordingly. Other men, however, seem unable to do this.
