It is unfamiliar and quite astonishing.

Those are not rules, just Paul's opinions.

Some of you make up scenarios in your own minds...



See the underlined above.
What happens to such women when men do not give them a "break" from sex? Is she still expected to perform?

I am asking questions. I am not making up scenarios.

Paul is a main force in the NT. His opinions are taken as gospel today about sexual relationships within marriage.

Is this really news to you that you have to have it explained?

What do you think? I assume you are an adult with some life experience. I am not trying to be a smart aleck - really.

Paul is like a girlie girl...Paulie has got to be one of the BIGGEST prudes in all of the world. He hated gentiles, he hated women, he hated the disciples, he hated just for the sake of hating--and the evangelicals made him an idol..is that just a coincidence?

YES, because I have NEVER DEMANDED sex from my wife--EVER...

I keep thinking about the consequences of sex in Christianity. Jeff said something about consequences for LGBTQ relationships.

Pregnancy takes a toll on a woman's body. The uterus does not return to its original size. The vaginal canal stretches to accommodate birth. Women risk prolapse and infection with pregnancy after pregnancy.

The consequence of having sex in a Christian relationship is pretty serious.

Answer the question. What happens when Christian men are demanding and his wife is in her last term of pregnancy?


I will assume we are both adults with experience.

If she doesn't perform, she is probably a witch. Especially if she looks like one.

At my age, (upper middle aged) it is I who has to be ready for my wife whenever she is ready. If you need to know if God has a sense of humor, look at when women and men peak sexually. When we were first married, it was me that wanted it all the time. Now, it the opposite. One comedian put it best. "My wife hit her sexual peak at the same time I discovered that I had a favorite chair."
