Religious Responsibility Of A Wife For Physical Relation With Husband
Salam.
According to my knowledge, it is stated in ahadith:
1. That when a women refuses sex to her husband without a proper reason, angels curse her till the next morning. Nothing is mentioned when a man refuses sex to a women. (Bukhari 3237)
This above Hadith clearly makes me think as if sex is something a women has to give, as if it is a responsibility.
I know Islam is quite different from cultures, but it is a common cultural belief that man brings money to the table, women bring sex and/or children.
The above cultural belief can be found in even western concepts.
My question is, does Islam promote such a concept where women are made responsible to provide sex to her husband? Like as a man is made responsible to provide financial support to wife, anything of that sort?
If not, what are the proper etiquettes for sex that Islam teaches us?

While reading the Ahadith, one should know that there are occasional sayings of the prophet in a given context, not a comprehensive lecture. The prophet was addressing women in a particular context. Compromise is a key factor in a good relationship. The Prophet advised women to cooperate with their husbands to please them. On other occasions, he advised men to be good to their wives. He said the best among you is the one who is best to their wives.

Agreed that compromise is always the basis of a good relationship.
Please tell me what is the context of above Hadith which I stated.
