Interesting podcast this week (2/1/23) on theology and our bodies. I enjoy discussions like this on theology, our bodies, and sex and maybe it’ll be thought-provoking for you too. DESCRIPTION On the Regular Version … There are many times in life where we may wonder what’s the meaning or story behind...

If she desires it and is willing? Yes. But as others have said, it might also be a lot of work. It would be for my wife. She knows the benefit but she knows her body and hormones (or really lack there of now) and she internally weighs that. Sometimes I can suggest it or start that direction and she'...

Probably need to head to Costco and pick up one of those 25 pound bags. Get the S...

Yes. I agree with what was said early, I see it as more gratitude, if it’s initiated by the lower desire/drive partner. I can’t imagine my wife now with the LD, experiencing anything as “gratitude sex” from me because of it. Could “transactional” be considered from sex that is offered if something i...
