You have a weird way of interpreting 'denying one's spouse nothing in order to prevent fornication'. But a lot of people use "Godliness" as an excuse. I guess "having a headache" is just for the inhibited secularists?

The words "denying one's spouse nothing" are not in the passage. Denying a spouse nothing using your logic could include anal sex and wife beating. You are correct in one respect in that everyone can make up her/his own mind.

You used double quotes, I used single -- commonly called paraphrasing.
 
"4: The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
5: Defraud ye not one the other"
 
Better?
 
Again, I'm not going to fight you... my original reponse was for the original poster. People get all funky about sex. I let them. Hopefully your spouse is in agreement with you, and mine with me. That's ultimately all that matters, right? 'Cause if it ain't whoremongering and adultery, God seems to be quite fine with it, too.
