Religion and impact on Sexuality In 21st Century
I have had the pleasure of dating a few woman who were very much involved with their Church.....And a few of them had kids from previous relationships, but not all of them..
But, no matter what that situation was, I often discovered many of them had a serious guilt trip over their sexuality. They enjoyed sex, but unless it was procreation or within the confines of marriage, they felt they were doing something wrong in the Church's eye...So this gave this a serious guilt complex...Sometimes, they would try and pass this complex on to me.
Ironically, I often found that many of the churches that they attended also had a double standard in the message. Teaching the girls to be chaste, but singing the "you better shop around" .which amounts to almost giving them permission to try different dishes to use that analogy, motto to so many of their male parishioners.....
And, of course, the fact that sex is prevalent in society, be it on TV shows, Movies, and definitely the Internet.....
Wondering what people's thoughts are on religion and it's impact on our views on sexuality......
