I am shallow because of said expectation.

Porn is not new it is just in a new format. before the inter webs, mags and movies, before that theaters before that nuddie shows before that burlesque shows which goes way way back. even in roman times there was a great effort in reproducing male and female forms


Quote:Like those lovers sought them?  They weren't married.....
Quote:I've often said and believed (as per James dobson of all men) there is nothing forbidden sexually in the marriage bedroom between a man and his wife.
You don't know where you end and the bible begins, do you?

what are you talking about?

If you want to discuss the bible then it begins and ends with your wife. it being all sexual activity. nothing else is allowed to breach the marriage bedroom. that includes all form of porneia. (the greek word for ANYTHING sexually stimulating or worldly) Meaning the bible has specifically dealt with porn in it's own way.

I quote dobbson because as stringent as he is he has a very liberal view on sex that does not over step the bible.
