35: Sexual Desire Differences -- spontaneous vs. responsive desire

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Matt and Jenn discuss the differences in how we access and express sexual desire. How do we handle it when one spouse seemingly wants sex more than the other?In general, a man’s sexual desire is like a microwave (spontaneous) and a woman’s sexual desire is like a crockpot (responsive). Neither is right or wrong and neither is better or worse.Empathize with your spouse’s position by offering grace, mercy, and understanding. Learn to embrace your own desire with contentment and enthusiasm.Each of you has a role to play in building and maintaining a solid relationship and circumstances where eroticism and sexual passion can flourish.Register for the 2021 Annual Retreat in Spring, TX: https://intimatecovenant.com/retreat Please send your comments, questions and suggestions to [email protected] Thanks for sharing, rating and subscribing!
