Quoting%20commentary for Ketubot 126:1

אלא למאן דאמר ממלאכה חולה בת מלאכה היא אלא מתשמיש כולי עלמא לא פליגי דהויא מורדת כי פליגי ממלאכה מר סבר ממלאכה לא הויא מורדת ומר סבר ממלאכה נמי הויא מורדת:

but according to the one who said, “[She rebels] from work,” is a sick woman fit to do work? Rather all agree that [a wife who refuses] to have sex is regarded as a rebellious wife. They differ only in respect of work. One Master holds that [for refusing to] do work she is not a rebellious wife and the other Master holds that [for refusing to do] work she is not a rebellious wife.
