The Vatican on Sex...

[Azriel]

There have been complaints that this thread was getting out of hand. Keep it clean folks, please.

I'm continuing this thread in the NFP phorum because I had some explicit questions. Hope you all will join me there. :ph34r:

The "masturbation" mentioned in the original post may simply refer to the already accepted and licit manual stimulation of the wife by the husband to bring her to climax. But, I have also read on another forum (Q&A with priests) that in the context of completed, vaginal intercourse, the wife may licitly assist herself in reaching climax.

yikes! Way too much info there

[crusader1234]

I don't think this is anything new they are just clarifying.

[J.P.]

Woah this thread is gettin' a little toooo steamy here folks. haha, none the less interesting.

[heyyoimjohnny]

...so they're getting technical. Nothing wrong with that. Sex is a natural part of life and a gift from God... no reason to shrink away from discussing it.

[Spiritual_Arsonist]

Geeeez. Nothing wrong with talking about what God gave us.

[musturde]

lol yeah but there are a lotta minors on phatmass... That's why it's not wrong, they just wanted the topic moved.

And where am I supposed to put it?
If I put it in NFP most the peeps here can't get in to read it.

Just keep it clean and respectful of the bodies God gave us.

The report on it in the daily paper was too misleading and negative.

How so?

It wouldn't surprise me if the mainstream press tried to make this seem contradictory with Evangelium Vitae...
