What if You Were Never Meant to Settle for Safe?
You can’t do it really well, can you? I have a “nephew” (he’s an adopted nephew, really) who always believed his favourite colour was red. Then he was tested for colour blindedness and it turns out he can’t see red. He’s been seeing SOMETHING, but it’s not red. And he never knew it this whole time!
I sometimes feel like it’s the same phenomenon with women who have very little sex drive and don’t really want sex.
I try to find so many ways of explaining how we’re missing out on something, and how it doesn’t have to be that way, but I’m never sure if I’m getting through.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot this week, because last weekend I was speaking at a FamilyLife Weekend Getaway, and the majority of women who came up to me with questions just had no libido. And they were tired of feeling guilty, but what were they supposed to do?
And so I thought–how can I explain it better?
I don’t know that I can say anything new. But I wrote a post a little while ago for Gary Thomas’ website, and I thought I did a good job there. So allow me to reprint it in its entirety today. And please–if you have no libido and you’re sick of hearing about sex, can you read it anyway?
