God formed man from the dust of the ground….and took a rib from Adam and made woman, and He brought her to the man.

GENESIS 2:22

All too often when we get married, we tend to think we’re marrying someone like our best girlfriend, when – in actuality – we’re marrying someone from another planet.

God designed men and women to be physiologically different. Women are relational beings. We love to talk, spend quality time with each other. We’re also nurturers, caregivers and keepers of the home. (There are exceptions!) But women are typically wired to feel fulfilled by nonsexual affection.

If we want to live together in harmony, it is a MUST we understand what is important to them.

Sex is not only physical, but it is a physiological drive within a man. It is vital and needful to them. Sex or lack of can even impact their decision-making. It affects their behavior, the way they think, react, process conversation, but most of all – the way they feel about themselves and you.

For most men, sex is their native language.

Never forget in Genesis 2, God presented the woman to the man, naked.

Eve’s body was the original wedding gown. Adam, probably glowing with joy, naked as well, loved the way she looked!

And they became one flesh…they had sex, and God was right there…. He created that bond that made them one flesh. Neither the man nor the woman was ashamed or embarrassed.
