The Truth About Toxic Masculinity & Rehumanizing Sex in Marriage


Listen Later

We’re breaking down the effects of toxic masculinity. Our guest, Zachary Wagner helps us redefine a healthy sexual ethic within the Christian faith, particularly in the wake of trauma & purity culture. Drawing insights from his book, Zachary explains how traditional teachings about sexuality can often dehumanize men and women. We propose a rehumanizing approach that honors God and embraces a full personhood perspective.

Key Points Discussed:

  • Purity Culture and Its Pitfalls
  • Beyond Sexual Behavior to a Proper Sexual Ethic
  • Dehumanization in Traditional Teachings About Sex
  • Rehumanizing Sex in Marriage
  • Why Some Fear Sexual Intimacy in Marriage

Listener Takeaways:

  • For Singles: Understand and develop a sexual ethic that honors yourself and others beyond mere adherence to rules.
  • For Married Couples: Explore how to engage in your sexual relationship that is rehumanizing and considers the holistic well-being of both partners.
  • For Church Leaders: Encourage teachings and dialogues that address the deeper relational and spiritual aspects of sexuality rather than focusing solely on behavior.
