| He has a very healthy sex drive and of course he notices other women, but if he finds himself dwelling, that is where the rubber band came in. |

I wouldn't worry too much about him if I were you. If anything, he should worry about other guys dwelling upon thoughts of you! Perhaps instead of a rubber band, a sling-shot would be more appropriate.   |

I was thinking the same thing too. It's not your wrist you should worry about. Would work far better if it was put somewhere where these impure thoughts are coming from and leading to. |

The man who put on the seminar has said that it has worked in business realms as well (for keeping your focus where it belongs). My husband doesn't wear the rubber band anymore (the suggested period of time was one month) and his goal was reached. I mean, yeah, if he sees a beautiful woman he still thinks she is beautiful but he doesn't ogle.
And I don't get looked at by other men at all so that isn't a problem!  |

No, I am totally serious! It would be nice every once in a while to be honest.
It may be the extra 70 lbs I carry around...one is named Philip and the other is named Gracie. Ha ha! I'm rarely without them. |

Ya know, I must tell you that you never know, my dear. Some guys get turned on despite your having kids. I wouldn't have believed it myself, but apparently a guy fell for me a few years back.
(I'm just a heartbreaker, I am!)

Angelina Jolie has about a million kids and about 80 million guys that are turned on by her. True, they aren't biological kids, but the same could be said about Catherine Zeta-Jones, Julia Roberts, or any other celebrity with kids.
Also, if men didn't look at women who had kids, widows and divorcees wouldn't have the chance to get a date. |

Sadly, some that I know, do have a hard time.  |

Actually, my husband makes it a practice NOT to look at other women. This is for spiritual reasons, not because he doesn't enjoy it. He says that I am enough and he doesn't want to think about other women in a sexual way. This is the point in which everyone pats me on the back and says "Okay, Tori." But it's true! He went to a seminar in February where there were other men (most of our friends and my father even went) felt the same way and there they were each handed a rubber band and given a set of instructions. It was simple...snap it whenever you see another woman dressed provocatively or when you think about another woman. At first he was hesitant to do it around me but I'm a big girl and after a discussion he felt free. And man, all I heard was snapping for several months. One day my Daddy came home after a day of errands and had a welt.
I'm glad for you that you have a husband that's so dedicated to you, but I have to admit that I am a little bit skeptical about the rubber band aversion therapy. Things like that might help you quit smoking or drinking, but the sex drive is much more powerful and deeply ingrained in the human psyche. Still, the fact that your husband is willing and happy to try this technique says a lot about his character.
Don't be so sure, GHcool. I've seen the rubber band be effective in containing all sorts of things that one wouldn't think of. And also, it's not as hard to quit sex as one might think. Smoking, on the other hand, is sometimes close to impossible.
And duh? One name for the deep sexy voiced man: Sam Elliott. |

Oh and maybe I should clarify he certainly does not abstain from sex or anything like that. |

I'm fondly remembering noncentz' reply to Tori's comment that he has 'the best stories'. Noncentz wrote, "No, your husband has the best Tory." |

I didn't say that I was sure it wouldn't work. I said that I was skeptical that it would work; and after Tori clarified her previous statement by saying that the rubber band was for "dwelling" (as opposed to simply admiring) other beautiful women, I think it has a fair chance at working. Also the rubber band isn't meant to quit sex altogether.
I'm reminded of one of the subjects of the fascinating documentary Trembling Before G-d who snapped a rubber band on his wrist every time he had a homosexual thought or feeling with the hope that he could train himself not to be gay. After this experiment, he said that he was still gay. The only thing the rubber band did was give him a lot of bruises on his wrist. |
