Substitute handsome for power, money, bad boy tingles, and status and your comparison crumbles.
...a woman who's husband is meeting her emotional needs isn't going to have that problem.
But if a woman meets her husbands sexual needs he wont have that problem... 1 Cor 7:5 & 9.
What if men refused to go to work when their "needs" have not been met like women are told to not have sex with husbands when their "needs" have not been met? Other foot meet the shoe!
The thing that so many seem to not realize is that for women sex is more about emotional fulfillment than physical fulfillment...
By emotional fulfillment I think you mean to say her own selfish reasons on her terms. BTW to imply that through physical fulfillment is somehow separate and apart from emotional is a cavil and compartmentalization that denies the design of God for sex.
A woman's self-esteem is often tied to how her husband views her as being attractive and desirable and if he's sending her signals that she's not, by viewing porn, then he is not providing for her needs nor protecting their marriage.
A man's self esteem is often ties to how his wife views him as as being attractive and desirable and if he's sending him signals that is not, by defrauding in bed or sandbagging through effortless sex, then she is not providing for his needs not protecting their marriage.
You think porn destroys relationships. Here is the 100 proof truth if you can handle it: feminism kills marriages and drives men to use porn.
I don’t disagree that feminism destroys marriages, but I disagree that it drives men to porn.
Men do porn of their own choice and volition.
TO claim that they’re *driven* to it is blame-shifting and refusing to take responsibility for their actions, only further reinforcing the feminist stereotypes of men are being weak and immature.
If men said *No!* to porn, the industry wouldn’t exist. No one is forcing it on them.
Based on your homepage, I am going to presume that if you’re following Scriptural principles, it’s the MAN’S responsibility to make sure the marriage is working.
As Christ loved the church and gave himself for it.
Two excellent resources for marriage counseling and anyone wanting to improve their own marriage situation.
