Should we watch sex scenes in movies? Could they negatively or positively impact marital sex?

Today, I sit down with David and we talk about our own experiences navigating sex scenes in movies and the movie that challenged us to discuss how we would approach this issue in our own marriage moving forward.
We don't have all the answers and we certainly aren't providing an extended dissertation with research. You're tuning into an honest conversation of what we've processed over the past few months and what steps we're taking to navigate sex scenes in shows & movies.
This is a new style of podcast for us, so let us know what you think! And, if you agree or disagree with what we say, we want to know, so send us a DM on Instagram @managingyourfertility or an email at bridget@managingyourfertility.com.

• Catechism of the Catholic Church #2354: "Pornography consists in removing real or simulated sexual acts from the intimacy of the partners, in order to display them deliberately to third parties. It offends against chastity because it perverts the conjugal act, the intimate giving of spouses to each other. It does grave injury to the dignity of its participants (actors, vendors, the public), since each one becomes an object of base pleasure and illicit profit for others. It immerses all who are involved in the illusion of a fantasy world. It is a grave offense. Civil authorities should prevent the production and distribution of pornographic materials."
