Even if you haven't heard of "IT," you most likely have experienced it. Lesbian Bed Death is a phrase coined by Pepper Schwartz and Phillip Blumstein in 1983 from a study they conducted on diminished sexual activity in long-term relationships.
Basically, it’s the term used to describe the death knell of the monogamous sex life of a couple. Their study included monogamous lesbian, gay and heterosexual couples. http://www.shewired.com/lifestyle/na...eath?page=full All long-term couples have a decrease in sexual activity. Lesbian bed death is a myth that will not die. "You Can Tell Just By Looking": And 20 Other Myths about LGBT Life and People By Michael Bronski, Ann Pellegrini, Michael Amico A totally irritating myth specifically about lesbians. You don't hear a catchy phrase called"heterosexual bed death" do you?
