I Had No Idea

I came across a blog that deals with sexuality in the context of LDS belief and practice. It is actually a series of podcasts with an LDS sex therapist. What I have heard is useful. This episode deals with a question from an LDS man whose wife refuses him sex altogether. (Second question in the podcast).


I am quite committed to the notion that men should have an "orgasm is optional" mindset or at least should be committed to growing in that direction. I am not committed to or extolling a "sex is optional" viewpoint. Sex is a mutual obligation of married life at some negotiable frequency.  But clearly this case is extreme. The wife has made it entirely non-negotiable.

Nothing I have written to date should be assumed to bless non-negotiability of coitus where there is no physical reason to refuse it.
