I think it's okay if the lack of sex stems directly from a lack of desire to HAVE sex.
For instance, say that my SO does something that pisses me off SO badly, I simply have a hard time wanting him to even TOUCH me. Just one of those really seething, angry scenarios where you don't want to LOOK at him for a day or two. Or maybe it's even a slow-boil type thing, where his lack of consideration or failure to meet you halfway on something festers until you're just . . . completely annoyed with them. In that case, when they CAN'T turn you on because the conflict has not yet been put to rights, I do believe it's okay to withhold sex because I believe everyone has the right not to have sex if they honestly don't want to.
That's not the same as being horned up beyond belief, yet not fucking your partner because he won't buy you a diamond ring, or left the toilet seat up. I'm talking about a genuine emotional cockblock because of an unresolved issue.
