Laurel has sought advice from Nicola about her lack of bedroom action from Marlon, so id thought id use the excuse to ask you forum members what do you class as a "normal healthy" amount of weekly "action" in the bedroom department in a relationship or marriage?

Along with, who do you imagine in soap land getting jiggy with it the most?

I don't think there is a "normal" amount. It depends on the couple. Everyone's different.

I will say though that any storyline involving Marlon should steer away from the topic of sex. Makes me feel ill.

I concur.

I do find it incredibly annoying, this whole suggestion that them not having sex 3000 times a week means the relationship's over, half an hour after they got married. Wtf? They've had loads of drama to deal with, have jobs to do and kids to look after and are worn out and stressed, like most of us. It's perfectly normal to have a dry spell for such reasons, it's often nothing at all to do with the health or lack thereof of the relationship.

I don't think anyone has it 3000 times a week

I think Phil would have a heart attack if he tried to do it more than once. He has enough trouble catching his breath from just talking.

Oh fantastic thread!

Much as the thought of Maurel getting on down disturbs me.....

Depends on how long people have been together, age of kids etc. I'd think when still in the honeymoon period (as they are) at least a couple of times a week.

It would decrease a few years in though, especially when looking after young kids and working different shift patterns.

As to who gets the most.

Hmm, Peter Barlow def a contender.
Chastity Dingle seems to think her hymen will heal up if she goes more than a week without intercourse.

Historically Blake and Krystle Carrington. He got very testy when fake Krystle refused to go to bed with him, had her carted off to a shrink and threatening divorce within a couple of weeks of abstinence!

Have to think about other contenders.

Yes, all joking aside, they have 2 fairly young children in the house (3 when Leo stays) one of whom is understandably being very demanding and in their bed much of the time! Plus Laurel works days, Marlon often works nights and they have been together a couple of years now (even though only recently married) and aren't teenagers in the first flush of lust where they can't prioritise other issues.

Of course these things change depending on circumstances.

If they do it'd only be for one week. They'd be dead by the end!

This storyline is really cringe. I don't get why she is moaning when she knew it was going to be a tough ride before she went ahead and married him. She chose to go through with the wedding and now it's getting tough and she's getting no action, she's acting like if she doesn't get any soon she's gonna walk. I think most woman just like the intimate side to it, feeling close to their partner. I thought that's how Laurel felt at first but these scenes with her and Nicola...it's like eww gross seriously?!

Laurel is nowhere near as nice, patient and caring as she likes to make out. Look at how she reacted to Ashley 'beating' his father. I'm not saying that hitting anybody, let alone a vulnerable parent is acceptable (or controlling their pension etc) but Ashley lost his temper a cpuple of times because he was at his wits end and with all due respect, sandy is not the most amenable person to live with. They were both struggling with Sandy's changing circumstances and what it meant for their relationship and how they lived. Did Laurel try and understand and help, even getting professional practical and emotional support? No, she just judged and used it as an excuse to exit a marriage she had already grown tired of and to keep full custody of the kids.

Marlon refusing to get processional help for April is a route cause, add to that he buried Donna like she was his current wife.

Laurel and her brood rate below April on all levels, thats never going to work.

Add to that the tediuosly dull gardener whos just rocked up and wont leave.

No, Marlon it would seem would be quite happy to never get laid by Laural ever again However for some bizarre reason Laural is desperate for him

I feel for Laurel in way, not having sex after you've just got married must be tough.

I have four children and I've always had a high "drive" a weekly fix is important to me (its enjoyable) and we've been together for over 15 years. however I don't think the amount of sex is a reflection of how strong or weak a relationship is. Its all about needs, wants and desire. The most important thing for me in my relationship in terms of needs is affection, a cuddle, a little kiss, a look, a brush of hand as you pass, the simple things I guess.

As for Blake and Krystle WTF??? Krystle should have dumped the old goat. Alimony, Krystle, hon, alimony. Didn't he try to rape her as well? Yet he was meant to be the 'good' guy. No wonder Alexis hated him.

Everyday. At least once.
That wouldn't be wishful thinking now would it JOP

Right, back on topic. I really wish Maurel would stop discussing their sex lives, but Laurel probably is being unrealistic. April's grieving - she's going to be causing problems and that's bound to be exhausting for both of them. I feel a bit sorry for her though, they seem to be drifting apart emotionally (I'm guessing that's what's really bothering her)and Marlon doesn't seem to realise she feels rejected. I think they both need a good talking to of the sort that Nico dished out to Marlon last night, because she's not helping him to deal with his grieving child, and he's forgetting that there are other people in his family.

As for who 'gets it' most -surely the winners must be Moira and Cain?? They certainly made a good start Although they did have a dry period a few weeks ago, and then Charity moved in which might have put a dampener on things. Hmm, I'll have to put some more thought into this..

Yes I was thinking Cain and Moira.

Until his recent health problems I'd have said Steve and Michelle in Corrie simply because I can't imagine what else can possibly keep them together.

To answer the OP, most birthdays would usually suffice.

After three kids 3 times a day is now 3 times a week. I can't imagine why a Laurel wants to have naughty cuddles with the gurning, heavy breathing Moron to be honest but it is an important part of a relationship. Not just the actual putty in bit but all the other stuff - hand holding, kissing, cuddling, bum feeling etc. There never was a spark with those two but now they are like two people working at something that doesn't exist.
