This ^^ is a photo of Olivia Wilde and her ex-husband, Tao Ruspoli, the Italian prince she married when she was 18 years old. Tao and Olivia lived like boho hispters for years, and then Olivia started getting a real Hollywood profile, and suddenly she and Tao were over. They separated in February 2011, after which Olivia had a lot of praise for her ex. She also spent many months dating around and being seen with various eligible men (Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake, etc). Olivia finally settled on Jason Sudeikis at some point, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. This is the backstory for this Olivia Wilde interview/monologue. Apparently, Olivia has now taken to discussing her lack of a quality sex life during her marriage to Tao. Which really sucks for him, right? After all, HE MADE HER A PRINCESS.
Olivia Wilde’s ladyparts cannot tell a lie. At These Girls (an evening of monologues, hosted by Glamour mag) in NYC Monday night, Wilde discussed trying to fake happiness with her ex-husband Tao Ruspoli towards the end of their eight-year marriage (the couple divorced in 2011). Ultimately, she says, she should have just listened to her, well . . .
“I felt like my vagina died,” she shared (via Vulture) of her sex life with the filmmaker and Italian prince, 36. “Turned off. Lights out . . . you can lie to your relatives at Christmas dinner and tell them everything on the home front is just peachy. But you cannot lie to your vagina.”
Wilde, 28, has since moved on from the heartache surrounding her split from Ruspoli; now, the Butter star (and her you-know-what) are happier than ever with her love of nine months, Jason Sudeikis.
Explaining that she is currently “blissfully, hopefully, wildly in love,” the actress boasted that she and the Saturday Night Live standout “have sex like Kenyan marathon runners.”
After delivering her monologue, Wilde caught up with Vulture, where she elaborated on her personal relationship manifesto.
“Sometimes your vagina dies,” she explained. “Then you know it’s time to go. There’s no reason to sacrifice your womanhood and femininity for some sort of weird feeling of responsibility to something that may not be right. I feel like far too many women do that.”
Added Wilde, “[Men] are not allowed to be the only ones thinking with their genitals.”
Sudeikis sat in the audience to show his support during his girlfriend’s impassioned Monday night speech. (Recently, a source close to Wilde and the comedian, 37, told Us Weekly that the pair are “totally inseparable” and “living together now.”)
Although they’re going strong, marriage is something they’ll most likely hold off on, for now. (Sudeikis has also been married before; he divorced actress and screenwriter Kay Cannon in 2010).
“They’ve both been married, so they’ve already experienced that and know what it entails,” the insider shared. “It’s something for down the road.”
I understand the point she’s trying to make when she says men “are not allowed to be the only ones thinking with their genitals.” I get it. She’s saying that sex/intimacy is important in any relationship and in any healthy marriage, and that men shouldn’t be the only ones who get to use the “biological necessity” excuse. The problem? It’s certainly f—king deeper than that, isn’t it? Olivia is making it absurdly simplified – like, “I didn’t have much of a sex life with him, but I have a great sex life with my new guy, so it was obviously my ex’s problem.” It might very well have been Tao’s problem. But very rarely is it so cut-and-dry. It feels like Olivia is just throwing her ex and his (malfunctioning?) dong under the bus and declaring victory for her vadge. What about self-reflection and communication? Or should we just applaud her for getting out of a marriage because of sex? Eh. How would we feel if a man had said this? Like, a dude comes out and says that his ex-wife made him feel like his dong had died, and he wasn’t going stick with a woman if he couldn’t get his rocks off? I feel like the reaction would be very different.

How crass. I hate to tell the princess, but every relationship goes through passionate ups and downs. If her vagina (gross) is the boss of her relationships, I feel sorry for her. I don’t see her having a lasting, deep relationship with anyone other than a vibrator.

Yup. It takes more than just marathon sex to maintain a healthy long lasting relationship. And how very classy of her to broadcasting her past marriage problem in public.

Definitely does take more than marathon sex, but it takes sex too. If you don’t have a good sex life with emotional intimacy, your marriage will deteriorate. And it takes work to keep it going.

When I said it takes more than marathon sex for a healthy relationship, it’s because some people confusing a good sex with making love (which IMO has a real emotional intimacy like you said). Example Meyer and Simpson. They have a realllyyy good sex life (according to them, anyway

THIS.
Your sex life may still be fulfilling after five, ten, or even fifteen years, but it won’t be the same as that wild phase at the beginning. And if she thinks for one second that sex can make up for the emotional connection and teamwork a marriage requires, she’s going to be sorely disappointed.
To continue the metaphor-Yes you need to water the garden-but if all you’ve planted is weeds that that’s what your going to end up with.

That’s a terrible analogy, too. She’s saying that their sex is monotonous, boring, takes a long time, and is pretty dull to watch?

LOL – that’s too funny, Canda. I’m a bit sympathetic to Olivia, though. While sex can go up and down in a marriage, if it goes away completely (like it did in my marriage), not only does it make everything else harder but it can also force you to wake up and realize that there are lots of other problems in a relationship. And while she shouldn’t have said anything publicly, it can be really hard to keep that kind of stuff in because it becomes such a big part of your existence (I wanted to scream to everyone how awful my sex life had become in the final two years of my marriage).

@Diana-you wouldn’t be pissed if your ex-husband told the MEDIA (not just a personal friend but the MEDIA) that his d*ck died when he was married to you?
It wasn’t like she said “the chemistry between us faded” or something that was inclusive of both of them or indicated that it was a mutual problem. The subtext of her comments is that he wasn’t satisfying her sexually.
Rude and crass X 1,000.

You’re right. I’d feel offended.
But I felt her statement was addressed to women in general. So if her ex feels offended because of her statement, I’ll agree with you that she was rude and crass.
But I felt like she made the statement without thinking much rather than with any intention to humiliate her ex. I think too much interpretation is being drawn out of her statement though.

Her vagina may have died while his p-nis was wandering around to water other dying vaginas for all we know.
I can forgive her crassness. She got married young and this is probably only her second big deal relationship.
Too many women stay once the sex is gone and fool themselves into thinking it is fine (unless you have a low sex drive. In that case, it probably is but I am sure your partner disagrees, unless they do as well). You need a sex life. Okay. Maybe some of you don’t, but I know I do.
Emotional, sexual, spiritual, mental…yes, you do have to work to have them, but you do need all four or someone is at risk of looking else where…

Mine too. I did not read it like she was accusing her ex any way.
And I think she’s right. Many women I know just stay in a sexless marriage for the sake of their children, when their spouses get it on the side.
And even worse is silently subjecting themselves to ‘conjugal duties’ when it does nothing for them.
But I don’t think quitting the marriage is an option for everyone. Good for her if she got out of a marriage like that.

But… a) if a man said this we would call him a dirtbag for prioritizing sex before love;
and
b) “my vagina died” is crass and tasteless. If what you mean to say is “over the years we became more like friends than lovers and I will always respect him” then you say that, not “women should think with their vaginas.”
Please, if you are reading something into her quotes about it being the love that died, go re-read.

Agree – I really dislike celebrities talking openly about their sex lives to begin with so saying her vagina died was just way too immature and vulgar.
When a relationship fails, of course the physical part of it does too, but there are more delicate ways of phrasing it, like “we lost that special closeness” or whatever.
She’s crass, crass, crass.

I think we’re all reading it wrong. From other, longer quotes I’ve read, she’s talking about how she felt AFTER they split up. She was separated from her husband and felt lonely, and that’s why she felt like her vagina died. I think that’s what she was saying, anyway.

I do not read in any part that she is trashong him. She is the one that felt that she was not sexual anymore. It happens when you are in depression. Lust goes out of the window, another symptom pf problems in the marriage.
Of course realising that your long marriage, dreams whatever ere going down, it IS depressing.

That’s how I took it too. Sometimes you still feel attached to a person (love), but aren’t in love anymore and the first place that shows is when you are intimate. Just not feeling it.

Absolutely agree. In the last yr together my ex husband and I had little sex and it was completely lack luster. Our hearts had moved on after 9 yrs. and we just didn’t have fun in or outside the bedroom. Simply couldn’t connect. Although, out of respect for her friendship with the ex and their history together she should have been more subtle.

“men are not allowed to be the only ones thinking with their genitals”, while true is not enlightened thought or empowering.
the fact that women can think with their brains and not exclusively with their genitals is what makes women better than men! any human that chooses to think with their brains over genitals is better- they’re not acting like animals. men that use their penis as an excuse to have what they want sexually without consequences are called DOGS for a reason.

I agree with you. She’s making a statement about going through the motions for a long time with someone she didn’t really love anymore. Sometimes people THINK they’re in a passion rut, and it turns out they’re not in love anymore and they’ve wasted a lot of time waiting out a rut that didn’t happen.
Obviously she said it in a crass and abrasive way that makes her come off totally unlikable.
Although I think all these people acting like she’ll fade from the spotlight faster than she came into it are wishful thinkers. I know a lot of women don’t like her around here, but she is beautiful and a better actor than a lot of the women we discuss.

You are really simplifying things there.

Sure, maybe her choice of wording was a little tacky, however they were her words and her feelings. She did not give a full disclosure briefing on what led to her divorce. This was probably just a part of it and this is what she chose to share for her monologue. While I agree with most, that marriage is hard work and sex is not the end all and be all of it and sometimes marriages go through dry spells or whatever the case may be, we do not know the whole story. We don’t know all the details about their divorce, so one cannot assume that the part of it she chose to share in her monologue is the only reason it happened. I also think that these particular sentences from her monologue were taken out of context of the whole thing and that she may have been trying to be funny. I read some other parts and that seemed to be the case. Also, if I may be brutally honest…just looking at her ex husband makes my vagina die a little..**shudder**

agree! i think that mentality is old fashioned, too.!
Imagine what would be MEN’s reaction on a site where 98% of readers are male and some male celeb were talking about his penis ex wife, sex life.
I guarantee men would not react the way these posters here do.
I mean, is it because we are women and we see woman talking so open about sex and her satisfaction? i don’t know… -_-

It’s not about sex, it’s about her being an a-hole towards her ex-husband.
Just because she wanted this information to be public, HE necessarily didn’t.

To me it’s not about being old fashioned, and the tiresome “woman vs man” double standard thing. It’s not about being uncomfortable with what she says either. It’s about the fact she made it public, what exactly is her angle to made her past intimacy public, to get some applause? I highly doubt you’d like your ex/current significant other to share all your intimate ups like downs of your past/present relationship. It’s not exactly like the dude was an a**hole who behaved like a scumbag towards her or violent and she denounced it to make an example (now unless she’s going to make a next announcement on that one too?). We all have some dirty laundry, but I highly doubt that we want *EVERYONE* to know about it, except the trusty friends we confide to. Now that a woman saying she’s very happy and blessed with her sexual life is one thing, but then bringing up the shady past is another. So I find it very tacky, and my reaction would be very much the same if it was a man who made such comments.

Agree — I don’t think this is a man/woman thing. It was a tactless way to express herself. I would say the same thing if it was a man — tactless.

There is of course a better way to put it. Scientist have already proved that some women have more testoterone in their bodies causing them to be more sexually charged. I’ve been in both kinds of relationships. I prefer the one where I am getting more orgasms. I communicate better when I’m sexually satisfied. I feel happier, prettier and less stressed. Just less pissy. I’ve talked to both my mother (married 31 years) and grandmother (married 56 years

I agree in general with your 1,2 and 3 points of importance.
But I feel she should put more value on (1.) and comunicate her problem (2.) with him and if there’s not the expected response and talk a bit more with a terapist and THEN separate if that’s the only way.
About choosing the right battles: she’s a complete scank for taking about it after such a long post-divorce time.
She supposedly moved on, no one cares if she had a good sex with her ex and even why you got divorced so why the drama?

She could of said it more tactfully. But I agree with a few of the other posters above, that they were having problems and their sex life faltered for it.

I guess I’m just a pretty private person then, because not only would I refrain from talking about my sex life with exes publicly, but I would expect the same courtesy in return. Maybe I’m a prude but if I let myself become vulnerable with someone, I expect a level of respect and protection of something that was once sacred to me, even if we’re no longer together.
Where is Amelia? I think she said the other day she hated O. Wilde and I asked her why. I think I’m starting to understand now because she seems pretty insufferable.

Exactly. It’s not so much WHAT she’s saying, it’s the fact that she’s saying it publicly. And then add to that the fact that she’s boasting about how great her sex life is now with her new man?

Holy Scary Ex-Wife, Batman! There was a time, a long time when she seemed pretty on the ball to me. That time’s over. So unnecessary and cruel, especially when she waxes orgasmic about how much better her current sex life is now than it was with the dude who let her social climb all over him. Those comments come off like those of a more vindictive Taylor Swift with a self-editing button malfunction.

I’ll join Team Prude with you, OKitt. I’m pretty open about a lot of stuff, but I would never say something so demeaning about an ex PUBLICLY. This is something I might say to my very best friend behind closed doors, with the knowledge that it would never get back to my ex. Clearly this dude is going to hear this and be mortified. Sucks for him.

OKitt, et al. I’m just going to throw this out there:
Sometimes women are physically (and/or emotionally) incapable of having an orgasm (“achieving climax” in PC-ese) until they reach a certain age/developmental level.
It’s not right to blab about this kind of thing to ANYONE but a closest confidant/friend who will keep their mouth shut!
She was 18 when they married, and this whole matter is not something she should be sharing, period. And I maintain that she’s an asshole.

That was really rude of her to insult her ex-husband like that. Comparing the sex in a marriage that lasted for 8 years to a current romance that is only 9 months old is ridiculous and immature.

Just terrible. And yes, if it had been a man that said that, my Lord would the outrage have been deafening! If she wanted to say the passion died or they fell out of love, she should have said just that. All this nonsense about her ladyparts dying is just crass and she HAS to know would immediately make her ex look bad. Great that she’s moved on and is having a great sex life but she doesn’t need to share that with anyone. Just crass and classless behaviour.

She should also wait on having kids if sex is so important. Yes, I agree intimacy wth your spouse is high on the list…but having kids will change that. You can’t just h*mp all day and night when you have a newborn or a toddler that has needs every few minutes.
Sex, comes and goes in a long relationship. I understand wanting it and not getting it as you use to (dating/honeymoon phase/pre-kids).
Just kinda tactless she told the world about it.
We get it, you’re having sex very often with Jason…
….but it’s not something we want to know…or jealous of.

While female sexuality has been discounted and marginalized or centuries, this balls out (excuse the pun) discussion of her sexual activities with her ex and Sudekis are low class, degrading. and undignified. Does she really think this is what female enpowerment is about – so we can talk locker room like guys? I want to scream when I see woman acting like this – keep your private life private. Women’s rights are all about making us EQUAL to men, not IDENTICAL. Try maintaining your femininity and discretion, and you’ll get much further than conducting yourself like a sailor.

I’ve never understood how a person can share a period of life with another person and before the words ‘it’s over’ have even been said that old love is barely a memory and the new one is miles better than the one who just wasn’t good enough. Sometimes makes you wonder if such a thing as feelings even exist. Oh well.

I think I get that she’s trying to say that her poor sex life was a result/vicious circle of the emotional unhappiness in her marriage. In which case, just come out and say so, and maybe bring up the fact that your ex wasn’t too thrilled with you in bed either — just to be fair. “Art” is not an excuse for targeted incivility toward an individual. If she needs to turn this into art, maybe she should paint a portrait of her dead vagina to help her work through it all….

So, so, SO true. You can hate how things ended or hate what a person did or how that partner changed–I’m not an authorized biography, so I don’t know what brought the parties involved to this place. But to do this to an ex just marks you down as hateful and whether it’s deserved or not, you kind of vindicate the other person when you choose to express the depth of your difficulties this way. I don’t know what kind of man her ex is, but now he gets to wear the ‘Well, At Least I Didn’t Do That’ crown and if played right, that position gets you very far in the court of public opinion. So, there’s another tiara she’s relinquished.

I haven’t commented here in awhile, but I just have to agree with you here. If I let my V dictate my life, I’d be in one of the worst relationships ever (with my amazingly great in bed, narcissistic ex), and I wouldn’t be married to my wonderful husband. Because, yes, it goes way deeper than the V. Moreover, I totally agree with the fact that she threw her ex under the bus for something that was, no doubt, her own issue b/c she married him so young and was over it. Total double standard and not as women’s lib as she’s thinking…a misguided attempt, IMO. She comes across as emotionally immature and trying too hard for laughs–at the expense of her (previously) friendly relationship w/Tao.

That “high” of a new relationship wears off eventually. Hopefuly she is happier now but she shouldn’t expect her “Kenyan marathon sessions” will be the norm throughout any relationship. Relationships ebb and flow.

Quite typical for a Hollywood actresses. Usually people in the showbiz have unusually high level of sexual appetite. Luke Ford reported that college athletes were recruited by celeb handlers to satisfy the voracious sexual appetite of female celebs. Maybe it has something to do with psychological profiles of people who go into showbiz.

It’s probably better they divorced for Him as well as her. Hopefully, he will find someone who will rock his socks in the bedroom. She should not have announced that to the world! Even if it was a problem they had, it probably had a lot to do with growing apart and her(meaning she should be taking some fault in the failed relationship too). People who are intelligent are going to think she shouldn’t just throw him under the bus.

I don’t think she meant it the way she said or she didn’t say it, if I can still a line from Mitt “eloquently”.

I have zero problem with a man or woman talking about their sex life. So let’s get this out of the way right now. This is not about some kind of prude desire to not hear people talk about sexual satisfaction. I also totally agree that we don’t allow women to talk about these things enough.
But frankly, this was a nasty thing to do to a man that she has acknowledged LOVED her.
She has gone on record many times saying that he ex-husband cared deeply for her and that he was a good man.
Why would you embarass someone you were married to like this? Why? It’s awful and wrong.
If a man did this, I would be disgusted and angry. I would hurt for his ex-wife.
I can’t let her off the hook for being truly insensitive and awful because she’s a woman. This was poor behavior.

What exactly does she mean her vagina “died”. Was he just a bad lover or was she totally turned off by him for some reason. I’ve had the latter happen and yes, it is time to leave not because I am some sex crazed skank (I’m under sexed if anything) but because I couldn’t bear to have the guy touch me anymore.
If he is just not doing it for her anymore but he has not done anything to repulse her, she is very cold. If he did something to repulse her she did the right thing but it should not be said outloud because it sounds crass.
Did that make any sense?
In short, my first reaction was to think Sedaikis (sp) better watch it, she is just like a stereotype of guy, it’s all about sex…. then I remembered my ex and that feeling of revulsion – ironically TMI because I felt that all HE cared about was sex and he made me feel like a blow up doll.
