    Sometimes my sex life is political. For example, Chuck Schumer can blow me :)

    I would have assumed you might have been, but the original admission was not solicited, and then you doubled-down on it. Sounds like maybe you need to talk to a psychotherapist or maybe a pastor.

    It's difficult to get in the mood while under stress. Trump's presidency greatly reduces stress for me. I felt like a loser when Biden was president an
    now I feel like a winner again.

    I would still seek help for that. Your sexual mood should not be
    determined by who is President. The only other people I see posting
    publicly (on social media) about sex drive being related to who is
    President are left-leaning women who very apparently have some unresolved mental issues.

    If you don't like therapists, try a pastor or priest.

    Except for when I'm joking, I keep it to myself.

    Would you actually trust a pastor or priest to help with sexual issues?

    Would you trust me (a computer scientist) to diagnose and repair your
    car?

    Nope.

    But I've had dealings with priests over the years and I wouldn't blindly trust a priest with any questions without verification from a reliable source.

    I'd ask a priest about priestly stuff or about Catholicism, but that's about it. I don't think they're allowed to have sex so I wouldn't want to bother them about a topic like that.
