A SCALDING show on marriage...
Hello Stefan, I have been contemplating contacting you for almost 2 years. I have been in a sexless marriage for the past 6 years. I do not see divorce as an option since we have 2 kids together and I will sacrifice all of my please and happiness for the well being of my children. I tried talking to my wife about this multiple times, eventually we end up having sex but there is no joy or connection coming from her. It's seems like it's a chore she has to do, occasionally. It was always me who initiated sex for the first 5 years. About 95% of the time I would be shut down by: is that all you think about, I'm tired, I have a headache, it's late. So I gave up and stopped initiating sex, now I'm lucky to have sex once every 2-3 months. I have resorted to watching porn for sexual release. I would like to add that I am the sole breadwinner of the family. I'm in my mid 30s and She is in her early 30s. She does not have to work, or worry about any bills. I take care of all the taxes, paperwork, billing, health insurance, etc. I can say we are middle class and we are not struggling financially. I have tried to move my in my career to supervisor or management position but I don't have the drive or feel like I can because I get belittled and told what to do constantly by my wife. I can honestly say that I know I am providing for her and protecting the our family in the time of need. I would do anything for her if she asked but she refuses to do the same for me I would love to have a conversation with you to discuss my flaws and what I may be doing wrong in order to fix this. I honestly can't go on living in a sexless marriage for any longer. Thank you for your time and all of the knowledge you bring forward.

The concept of Universal Consequentialism 😱
A year ago, I presented a different view of consequentialism in this community, which is to devide the concept into rational and irrational consequentialism.
Here's a different approach to explain what consequentialism actually is, based on an example Stefan is providing in his book "Peaceful Parenting", chapter 11, page 153, timestamp 38:19 in the audio book. Quote:
"Since you are all very clever readers, you will be replying to me in your mind something along the lines of this: 'Ah, you say, Mr. Philosopher, that no one can accurately predict the future, but you also state that hitting children has negative outcomes!'
That is certainly true – both that I make that claim, and that hitting children does have generally negative outcomes.
However, we do not judge the morality of hitting children based upon positive or negative outcomes.
For instance, we know that state control of the economy leads to massive inefficiencies – but we don't judge the morality of state control of ...
