Chapter 19: Myth—Sexuality Doesn’t Matter

Page 78

Rear-entry vaginal sex is possible during pregnancy and at other times. What is amazing is that the penis is inclined to slope upwards

towards the clitoris during face-face or missionary sex, but the vagina is also equipped with two sensitive areas on the opposite side of its opening. From a rear-entry vaginal sex position, the penis would engage those sensitive areas of the vagina by the male’s upward sloping penis. According to The

Gift of Sex, “These [4 and 8 o’clock positions of the open face-face vagina] are often more highly sensitive areas in the vagina.” 35

Thus the female and male body is both capable of sex throughout

pregnancy. What about the issue of menopause? If sex were just for procreation, then sex after menopause would be a sin. Aside from the fact that our bodies do not stop enjoying sexual pleasures just because of menopause, there is the clarion example of Abraham and Sarah. Sarah had already passed menopause and her womb was dry according to the account

in Genesis 18:11. Yet this did not daunt God who told them to keep up the sex and she would get pregnant according to His timeline. I note that it took awhile and that Sarah was 90 and Abraham was 100. Do you think they enjoyed sex while trying to make a baby? I did and I am sure that their

bodies were better off than those of a comparable age today. Abraham remarried after Sarah’s death and had other children around the age of 137. One can only intellectually conclude that sex also exists for the pleasure of the human race and not just for the limited and sole purpose of procreation.

The issue of male or female body discharge is also brought forth in the Bible and no doubt confuses the church. God says to stay away from those who are “unclean” for different periods of time. Consider His Word.

Bodily discharges meant people were unclean!

“If any man has an emission of semen, then he shall wash all his body in water, and be unclean until evening. And any garment and any leather on which there is semen, it shall be washed with water, and be unclean until evening. Also,

when a woman lies with a man, and there is an emission of semen, they shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.” Leviticus 15:16-18
