Helping Women Enjoy Sex in Marriage

The other day, as Lori and I were getting into bed to enjoy each other, she said she hated that so many women don’t really enjoy sex. And of course I am with her 100% on that.

There is plenty of blame to spread around on this. Both society and the Church have made a mess of sex, especially for women. Some put all the blame on men, which is both unfair and counterproductive. Yes, men have been part of the problem, but only part. Women have messed sex up for other women for decades, and it’s still going on. I’ve seen sex positive married women badmouthed and shunned by churches. And I’ve heard about woman saying things to brides about sex that are ugly and destructive.

Some of this is sour grapes. A woman who doesn’t enjoy sex doesn’t want anyone else to enjoy it either. I think sometimes it’s an attempt to form a unified front against the “vile passions” and “unreasonable sexual expectations” of men. And some of it is well-meaning but misguided attempts to protect young women from something God wants them to enjoy.

Of course, I’ve also seen women who go out of their way to talk up married sex. And many of these see it as their duty to get a bride-to-be something sexy to wear to bed and maybe a sex toy as well. Others go further and take women about to marry out for a meal and some sex positive talk.

There is no neutral on this. If you don’t take a stand for sex, many will assume you are in the “meh or worse” camp.
