1 Corinthians 7:3-5:
The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
Aside from the fact that this passage has been used to perpetuate the belief that there is no such thing as marital rape, I think is it wise to remember that if you are in a monogamous relationship, you are your partner's only outlet for sex. That should neither be taken for granted, nor wielded as a weapon.

My thoughts:
Help your partner feel loved and achieve orgasm(s).
Vice versa is the ideal.
Together is great but there's nothing wrong with taking turns either.
I'm not sure it is open to interpretation; on the surface it sounds like a pep talk, but the subtext is that one person has carte blanche access to another person's body, and that "yes" overrides "no". That's a dangerous endorsement in the wrong hands.

Actually missed verse 2......``Neverless , to avoid fornication , let every man have His own wife , and ever woman have her own husband`` .............. See this rule for married couple is to avoid to sin of fornication and then breaking the commandments of , ``do not commit adultery ``, as when people commit adultery they open the only spiritual law for the devil to take authority and interferer with bring more of the devil presence in people lives .........See Christianity people are all called in resisting sin which invites the devil of the kingdom of darkness which Christians are called to resist .
