Appropriate Sex

Is sex important? Absolutely!

Marital sex is one of the most important part of our lives! Yet, we don’t talk about it as often as we should. People tell jokes about it, love to see it in movies, or read explicit scenes in books but hardly talk about the appropriate kind of sex.

Why is that?

Sex is everywhere. I can’t tell you how many times my husband and I have turned magazines around in the grocery aisles around because of inappropriate images of women and men we didn’t want our children exposed to. I personally didn’t want to see another half naked woman or a man other than my husband either. I hate to think of all the young women who try to look like that woman on the magazine cover and all the young men who get that image seared in their minds.

Sex is very personal. This is one of the reasons why sex outside of marriage, whether a person is single or not is harmful. When people engage in sexual activity before marriage they are sharing a very special part of themselves with someone who is most likely not going to marry them. (It’s really a selfish act.)They find sexual satisfaction now but rob their future spouse of something precious. How many children pay the price for these selfish choices? How many children will never have both father and mother in a home?

Sex is fulfilling. When both husband and wife enter into marriage without having any previous sexual experiences it makes them have a special bond. Just the fact that they have kept themselves pure for each other makes each uniting moment so unique.

Think about it: If a husband or wife has had sexual experiences before marriage, they bring every past encounter with them into their marriage bed.
