Chances are the “sex talk” you got from dad was terrible….if you got one at all.
And the locker room is definitely no fountain of truth when it comes to women.
So how do you know what a woman really wants in bed?
Physical intimacy is really important in a marriage, yet you can’t read your wife’s mind (thankfully) and you’ve never been a woman (probably).
She’s NOT A MAN! So using your own experience around sex to understand her isn’t going to work either.
In this guide you’ll get a start in the right direction with 19 Need-to-Know Truths about pleasing your wife sexually, knowing what turns her on, and how to keep her satisfied. – As shared by a certified sex therapist.
Most of us, however, did not get a very good education about sex from the church or our dad’s for that matter. Our ideas about sex came from everywhere but the Bible. We were lead to believe that sex was great fun, but like all things that are great fun were also dirty, nasty, sinful, and wrong. Which makes you wonder why we are supposed to save it for the one we love.
This article is far from comprehensive, but it’s a good start to a quality, accurate, and Biblical guide to sex for Christian Men. The resources referenced go into a lot more detail and I highly recommend you pick up a copy. I don’t care how old you are, you’ll learn something and it will make your love life better (even if it’s already great).
Cliff Penner, Ph.D. and Joyce Penner, M.N., R.N. (Penner & Penner) are some of the most trusted experts in Christian Sex Therapy. Many of the concepts in this article can be found and expounded on in Cliff’s book The Married Guy’s Guide to Great Sex.
