Q: Is viewing pornography together as a couple okay?

A: No.

When sex is viewed as just a primary tool for orgasm and not as a tool for oneness, it loses its excitement, its spontaneity and everything that God intended for it to be.

What should a couple do when the sex life starts to grow stagnant? Pornography is not the answer for many reasons.

Look at Matthew 5. Sexual immorality is one of the greatest destroyers of your spiritual growth. Set nothing before your eye that is going to put another woman or another person in your head. Ladies, when you are making love to your husband and his eyes are closed and the lights are out, you dont want him having the image of another woman in his head. When you introduce pornography into your marriage, the addictive value it has to your husband is just opening up a can of worms you do not want to open.

There is a greater problem if you feel your sex is not hot. Remember sex is just a barometer of the marriage. It is a barometer of the relationship and how hot the relationship is. If it is not hot in the bedroom, do not add the destructive, sinful behavior of watching pornography together.

This is a road you must not go down.
