Paul addressed sex.

There does need to be teaching on sex, for SURE. I have heard so many ignorant ideas over the years, and plenty from ministers as well as laymen. However, it doesn't need to go so far as to give specific instructions, IMO, and should at least be in an all adult setting.

And since men do (generally) have a greater sex drive than women, then it should be a given that sometimes there needs to be sex when he's the only who is in the mood.

As for men...well, it's cliched but TRUE...sex starts in the kitchen.
Very good post Miss Brat. However, I would also say that I have zero tolerance for men who pressure their wives into sex when they are not willing to work out the problem. I just felt that the ZERO tolerance for women needed to go both ways.

I think I said that, too. (in a nutshell) But I'm a woman, so I feel a little more free to address how a woman should act, than a man. Kind of like "I can talk smack about my family, but you can't."

I've just been around more than a few women who complained about sex, talked about using it against their husbands, lying and saying they're on their periods when they aren't, acting like their husbands are pervs for wanting sex (so often), etc. I find that to be very off-putting within the ranks of my own gender, and I don't think it's how a Christian woman should treat her relationship with her husband, sexual or otherwise.

Re: Seven Days of Sex... Woo Hoo!! :)

So if he's over stepping to advise married couples to enjoy sex with each other for 7 days straight, would he be even more out of line to suggest or prohibit what positions or actions should be done?

Legalism is doing things to earn righteousness.
