Where Do We Go From Here?

17: Sex Is For Wives, Too


Listen Later

If you've heard that men have an innate, not-understandable need for sex, popular author Sheila Gregoire disagrees. She says, "the most deprived people in the bedroom are wives." This episode will show you the way Christian sex books undermine a woman's sexual agency and a woman's sexual needs. There's another way, and we get into it. This episode is for adults only.

We talk about:

  • the books Love & Respect and The Act of Marriage
  • How husbands can serve their wives
  • How women can draw boundaries in their marriage
  • What sexual fulfilment really is
  • Vaginismus
  • Obligation sex messages
  • Fundamentalist ideas about sex and marriage
