Actor Manami Hashimoto appeared as a guest on Abema's talk show "Himitsu no Mama Sono" (Sunday 9pm) on July 13th. The mother of two revealed the measures she and her partner discussed when they first got married to deal with the "postpartum sexless marriage."
On this program, hosted by Makiko Takizawa, Chihiro Kondo, and Minami Minegishi, where they discuss topics such as parenting, romance, and marital relationships, Hashimoto was the guest and talked about how she met her husband, whom she married in 2019, and her past relationships. Hashimoto candidly admitted that the men she dated in the past "cheated on me a lot."
She said that her husband is a serious man and she is not worried about him cheating, but when they first got married they discussed how to deal with the "post-partum sexless marriage." "It was important for us to continue as a married couple for decades. It would be bad if that were to disappear. We made physical contact very important. Kisses and things like that..." she said.
When Takizawa said, "If you had Hashimoto's body, it doesn't seem like you would end up (having a sexless marriage with your husband)," Hashimoto revealed her concerns, saying, "I've never felt what a man feels, but I think I would get bored of looking at the same person all the time. I feel like that's where a sexless marriage would start."
