Welcome to the EmpowHER community. I hope you got some relief by venting your feelings.
As we age, our bodies show the signs, things change. I can appreciate that to reach an orgasm, there needs to be specific activities. I can appreciate that your husband feels inadequate.
My advice is to stop the blame game. Your husband was honest with you, eventually. His initial denial regarding masturbation was probably fueled by his embarrassment.
Maybe, the two of you can reach a compromise. Isn't that what marriage is about?
If he can satisfy you as you require, ask him what other "sexual" ways you might engage in to satisfy him.
