Not talking about her not being in the mood. True, sometimes the other partner doesn't want sex... and you shouldn't force them.
What is being talked about is the idea of withholding sex on the basis of it being a form of punishment. This is what's wrong... sex should be freely given when both partners are comfortable with one another and in the mood. It should never be used as a bargaining tool.
A woman withholding sex as punishment for a man's 'misbehavior' and then rewarding him with sex for performing the correct 'trick' really isn't much better than a whore. She is purchasing something with sex... in this case, favors and obedience from the man she's with.
"The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth that strength can only be developed by effort and practice, will, thus believing, at once begin to exert itself, and, adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at last grow divinely strong."
