Why “Don’t Be a Stumbling Block” is A Really Bad Modesty Message

How many times have you heard calls for women to dress modestly in terms of “you don’t want to be a stumbling block”?

Phew. This has been a tiring week on the blog–and I knew it would be. I’ve been talking about how the idea that all men will lust is wrong, and how we need to reframe the way we talk about lust and sex.

Today I want to end this topic and move on (I’m so looking forward to our July Sizzling Summer Sex series!).

But there is one more thing I really need to deal with, and it’s the idea that women can “cause a man to sin” by what they wear.

Today, let’s look at what Scripture actually says, and find a healthier way to talk about modesty that accomplishes our goals of getting both genders to act respectfully towards each other.

Sex is supposed to be stupendous--physically, emotionally, AND spiritually.

If it's not, get The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex--and find out what you've been missing.
