Welcome to sex chat for Christian wives.

We're four marriage and sex bloggers discuss the naked truth.

What does God really want for the sexual intimacy in our marriage?

I'm Jay Parker of Hot Holy and Humorous.

I'm Chris Taylor from The Forgiven Wife.

I'm Gay Christmas of Calm, Healthy, Sexy.

Well, whose idea was it for sex to evolve getting naked?

Oh, yeah.

It was gods.

But we get it, ladies.

We understand the struggle wives often have with their body image and how it affects their sexuality. So today we want to

revisit this topic and discuss how we can finally embrace our bodies and get comfortable being

naked in our bedrooms. So first question, ladies, why is having a positive body image such a challenge

for women? One reason is because our culture sets ridiculous and unrealistic standards and holds those standards up to women and says, this is what you should look like.

But really, very few people actually look that way.

And most real women living real lives do not, but we're affected by what we see and what we think we should look like.

I think so many of us grew up looking at these images of women who maybe haven't even had children yet,

and we just kind of have this perpetual youth idea that we should look like, you know, a tight-bodied 20-year-old woman,

and then we go on and we get older and we have real life. And, you know, we sometimes have

babies. Gravity happens. And bodies change, but we're still comparing ourselves to this body

that we thought we should have had, you know, 20 years ago.
