A Review of "Intended for Pleasure: Sex Technique and Sexual Fulfillment in Christian Marriage"
Huff, Scott C.
American Journal of Sexuality Education, v7 n2 p170-175 2012
"Intended for Pleasure" presents information regarding sex and sexuality oriented towards Christian couples. Written by a medical doctor with his wife, the book is particularly strong in describing common sexual problems with an additional strength of focusing not only sexual intercourse but also on the whole relationship as being important to sexuality. Unfortunately, there are limitations in that their interpretation of the Bible is sometimes idiosyncratic, they seem to have unstated expectations about acceptable sexual practice, and abusive relationships are not sufficiently discussed. Overall the book may be a good fit for Christian couples looking to improve their sexual satisfaction.
