Sexuality in Marriage

Last month we aired a message by Dr. Juli Slattery on Focus on the Family. It has generated a lot of response, and you’ll hear why when you give it a listen! Her presentation, to a large group of women, was all about sexuality. Dr. Slattery was frank – and funny. Her audience loved the unique things she shared.

Related, the Wall Street Journal noted a recent study that indicated couples who share housework often share…more than that! In marriages where the husband does some of the cleaning around the home, sexual intimacy is more frequent. What do you think – true or not?

Finally, I’m thinking back about 25 years ago, when my wife and I read this book. Great stuff there! We laughed a lot, and we learned a lot, too. I’ve been recommending it to couples ever since.

    Sharing the house work has not made any difference in the sexuality part of our marriage.
    In fact, I do so much more of the house work this last year since I lost my job, all I get from my wife is, “thank you” Sure we have talked about it, but sex is not very often, never has been. I wonder if this whole thing of jumping through enough of the right hoops to please my wife thing, is really the answer?

    Absolutely! My husband shares a lot of housework with me- makes me breakfast when I need to go to work early, cleans when I’m away from home more than he is, etc, and I must say- he is NEVER disappointed in this area of his life! :) I have a wonderful husband.
