Comment on What wives with husbands involved in porn don’t want to hear… by peacemakingirl

First…the marriage bed is undefiled. The bible states this and I agree.

Regarding masturbation “without” mental imagery…I am not convinced that it’s possible. Just because you don’t imagine a face, doesn’t mean someone’s body isn’t being fantasized about.

God didn’t create men to have the sexual release, as so many refer to it, at the rate we assume they need today. It has evolved, along with porn and an obsession with sex in general, into what we now accept in our society as “normal.” However, God DID create a means to escape that sin, too. He did so at the point of Creation. It’s called nocturnal emissions and it’s not just for teenagers.

If the occasion for a married man happens where his wife is unavailable for a time, then in my opinion that’s still between husband and wife. Not just the husband…it should still include the cherishing of his wife.

it bears mention that just as mental adultery does not require a sex act or masturbation, so is it possible to masturbate without mental adultery, if the focus is on the act and the only person used is one’s spouse.

Men inevitably tend to want sexual release with greater frequency than females and so it can help to plan to delight in one’s sexuality without the use of porn. Albeit, if there’s a lesser-evil, it’s probably cheesy novels that let males focus on the act, rather than a specific real person. I’m not saying those aren’t problematic too, but they are preferable.

Honey this was really good! I know you were fearful and thought this was a ’soap box’ but when God does it, is it a soapbox? Thank you for your patience, mercy and kindness in this area in our marriage… The other variable I see in this area regarding dealing with sin is that many of us want to manage it versus hating it… there is a difference… managing is defeat and decption whereas hating is radical amputation, radical appropriation, radical accountability and radical worship. Big difference. I have found this resource (http://relit.org/porn_again_christian/) to be really good for the men. Why not post this on the Oasis Fan page (share link)…. really good babe… I love you!
