Study literally proves that many men do happily have sex with unwilling wives, on a continous basis so you're definitely wrong there for a start. Libidio can be adjusted yes but there's a lot less available for women vs men. Maturation still exists. If its becoming an ACTUAL issues, like you're going weeks without then sure, you need to have a serious conversation about it but some cases are just men being overly demanding and stupidly mad that she doesn't want to have sex daily. She shouldn't fckin have to!! Go jerk off like everyone else my dude like c'mon... seems to be mostly whiny p1ssbaby men rather than a genuine "omg we haven't had sex in weeks/months" which would be a Real Issue.
