Does Christian Sex Advice Promote Unhealthy Sexual Intimacy?
I’ve noticed a few common threads among books giving advice that hinders healthy sexual intimacy:
1. They tend to talk about sex from the male perspective.

3. They suggest that giving husbands good sex is the main way of keeping them free from sexual immorality.
4. They reduce sex to intercourse. (Spoiler: it’s so much more than just having intercourse.)
5. They perpetuate the obligation-sex narrative.
