Using Romantic Erotic Literature to Heighten Passion


Question about Using Romantic Erotic Literature to Heighten Passion:"Recently we have been trying to improve our love making. I found reading romance-erotic books helps me get in the mood. My husband is thrilled at the new passion and that I am willing to try new things. Is reading romance novels okay? Our sex life has never been better and I feel like I am being "educated" on what sex can be like. But I want to be God honoring in our sex life."

Answer: Carrie and I are careful with erotic literature because we don’t want to stimulate sexual desires for anyone except one another. Any romance novels or erotic stories should not awaken desires for others, but only for your husband or wife … that must be the bottom line.

Another important consideration is that sensual and erotic novels (also movies and television shows) are often very different from how we actually experience life and relationships. They may give us unrealistic expectations for our own marriages.

The romantic erotic literature might make it easy for us to compare our spouse with the man or woman in the book/movie.

  • A husband could become disappointed that his wife is not more sexy or voluptuous, or continuously desirous and hungry for aggressive sex.
  • A wife might find herself wishing her husband would become more dashing, sweep her off her feet with his constant romance, and bring her to sexual heights with only a passionate kiss and embrace!

Keeping all of that in mind, here are a couple of sites you might like to check out:
