For Some Men, Love and Sex Do Not Go Together There are many names
for it: Madonna/Whore Complex; Madonna-Whore Syndrome; Virgin/Whore
Complex; Prostitute-Versus-Madonna Syndrome; Virgin-Prostitute
Syndrome; Pedestal/Gutter Syndrome; Madonna-Whore Dichotomy;
Virgin-Madonna-Whore Complex; Madonna vs. Harlot; Obscenity-Purity
Complex; Good Girl-Bad Girl Dichotomy. Regardless of the name, it
refers to the male sexual dysfunction in which some men believe
that sex is a dirty act that is only enjoyed by "bad" women-whores.
For these men, all women are divided into two very different
groups: the whores/prostitutes/harlots, women who are easily
seduced and who enjoy the dirty act of sex; and the
Madonnas/virgins-as in the Virgin Mary-pure women of virtue who
would never enjoy sex and who should not be degraded by the sex
act. These men, who love their wives too much to have sex with
them, marry virgins but save their passion for whores. For a woman
brought up believing "good girls don't," marriage is supposed to be
when "good girls do." She may link marriage, love, and sex together
but marriage to a man with the Madonna/Whore Complex will be
essentially sexless. A man diagnosed with the Madonna/Whore Complex
does not want to have a wife "who is a lady in public and a whore
in the bedroom." He expects his wife to be a lady in public and in
private. He does not want her to be sexually aggressive or act
whorish (in his opinion). He wants her to be pure in mind and body,
virginal in every way. For him, love does not equal sex nor does
sex equal love. Table of Contents: Introduction The Madonna/Whore
