Posted in: Why so many marriages in Japan are sexless – and what you can do about it See in context
There is really no need to have sex with the wife if there are professionals out there who can handle that job! It's Japan, after all...
As for the wives, one can't really blame them if they lose appetite for sex. Usually it is the husband who changes first. The once "cool" ikemen guy that they married suddenly become annoying and lack sense of appreciation towards their wife. Physical changes are not that much of a factor why wives lose interest in their husbands. It is more about emotion, and when the wife doesn't "connect", then it's the end.

Because of the war in Ukraine, and air space in Russia being unavailable for many airline companies, then the best and cheapest option is to to fly via Dubai (or Doha). I won't be surprised if Doha is next to Dubai on that list.
