I just wonder sometimes whether the problems about the sex act comes from the church which often teaches that sex is sinful and fleshly and that it is not conducive to holiness? If a child, educated in church schools has had that sort of thing drummed into them, then it is understandable that sex is repugnant to them.
I wonder if some church people have forgotten God created and designed the sex act for procreation and mutual comfort and pleasure; that between married Christian couples it is actually fun and enjoyable?
Perhaps those who have problems with the idea of their own involvement in sex within marriage might need counselling and "de-programming" from the "brain-washing" they have received because of inaccurate teaching from celibate priests and nuns who may have the same problems themselves.
Not putting anyone down...just sayin'....
I don't think sex, even within marriage, is dirty or sinful. I just have no sexual attraction to others or desire for sexual intercourse whatsoever. As for children, I have no interest in them either. Sometimes issues are not as clear cut as they may seem. There's numerous reasons why a person may not want sex or children.
