This quote contradicted the whole point of the play which was to show that women were abused and used as sex toys against their will.
This also showed that some women found pleasure in being abused, that's why most women were hesitant when Lysistrata suggested for them to avoid having sex with their men.
This is also supported by the Lysistrata when she said that" they don't get as much pleasure from forced sex." ( Lysistrata, Line 165).
