12 OPINION THE UNIVERSITY OF DARY KANSAS GUEST COMMENTARY Sizzling sex tips from a married Christian mother I am a conservative Christian wife and mother and I love sex. Every Sunday morning I attend church. Every school morning. I take my son to school. Every weekday afternoon, I kiss my husband when he gets home from work. Every evening, I cook supper for my family, and almost every night, I close my bedroom door to partake in my favorite cardio activity: sex. While I proclaim boldly that I love sex, many of my Christian female friends do not. In fact, when I bring up my sexual appetite and process, my friends react like children and giggle or stare at me in dismay. My Christian friends aren't the only ones who act surprised when I localize my love of sex. Somehow it has become an oxymuron to be a Christian woman and sexual. Often times the church encourages silence on issues regarding sex. Don Joy, professor of human development and family studies at Asbury Theological Seminary and author of several books about intimacy and marriage, says that the silence of the church instigates shame and that often there is no accounting for the power of shame. Yet also surrounded by imagery in pop culture. Christian women often develop conflicting views on what is appropriate. However, God wants us to celebrate sex. The Bible includes an entire book on the expression of love. In Song of Songs, King Solomon describes acts of sexual love, often using erotic lyrics like "Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth ... Take me away with you — let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers." In Song of the female, as well as the male, vocalizes her sexual desire and experiences. Pary Rae Dawson, author of "Marriage: A Taste of Heaven, Vol. II: Gods People Make the Best Lovers," states that surveys conducted by both secular and Christian groups show that God's people make the best lovers. Dawson also says, and listen closely. "A truly unimbsed person enjoys his spouse to the fullest with the blessings of a clear conscience." Not only should Christian women embrace their sexuality, but they should also realize almost any sexual act within the confines of marriage is acceptable and healthy. True sexual liberation for the Christian woman comes with the ability to welcome uninhibited love with her husband. Furthermore, Christian women should enjoy a hot, slamming sex life. Consider these five tips for a Christian woman's caring sex life. Tip 1: Flirt marriage and family author Jerry B. Jenkins in his book "Loving Your Marriage Enough to Protect It" concludes. Remember going on a date, sitting next to each other in a restaurant booth, you smile and give him a "come hither" look. He reaches over and squeezes your knee. Perhaps a few other stitches touch occur. At that moment you want to rush home and rip each other's clothes off. Go on a date. Sit in a booth. Tip 2: Anticipate Close your eyes, relax. Imagine his hands crumbling down your body, touching you in places and ways you never imagined. Allow yourself to get lost in the feeling. The anticipation alone may be enough to achieve the big Q. A study conducted by the University of Chicago found that women were the most likely to report achieve our demands during intercourse. My husband and I have a public basket next to our heath. We call it our eus basket. In the basket we have a myriad of toys, books, snacks and games. Adults' make up by relationship Enrichment Tip 3: Play Systems, is an excellent game to play together. Our personal favorite sex books include Position of the Day Playbook by Nerse com and 103 Great Quakes by Laura Corm... When people make a commitment to making sex more exciting, spontaneous, and satisfying for their partner they are ... making their relationship a priority in their lives. Corn says Tip 4: Surprise One day my husband and I were at the county fair. We were tired of working boots all day, and we had 30 minutes without any responsibility. I looked at him and nodded toward the baseball diamonds. I took him by the hand and quickly led him over to a nearby dugout. I think you know the rest of the story. As Corn says, "Surprise is the key." Tip 5: Flex This one is simple. There is a time to make love and a time to - well you know. Figure out which is which and work accordingly- However, the most important thing to remember is love. The above tips will make for some pretty damn good sex, but without love, it won't be fulfilling. That's why God created it. He wants a husband and a wife to celibrate their love for each other. Proverbs 5:18 and 19 says, "May your fountain be blessed, and may you resinize in the wife of your youth. A loving dee, a grateful deer — may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be curvated by her love." To quote Corn once more, anyone "can have fantastic sex if you keep in mind one simple formula: Anticipation + Variety = Great Sex." And Christian women should have great sex. Christian women and sexual repression should not be symbiontous. So if you will excuse me, it's 10.47 p.m., and after I say my prayers, I have a session to attend.

Gross mistreatment of gays, lesbians to be taken seriously I take offense to the notion that gays and lesbians aren't treated as bad as other minority groups. I take offense to this for the simple reason that I have spent the majority of my life being called a "queer" a "fag" or a "faggot." I've had gay friends who have been hit purposely by straight teens who think that we aren't equivalent. When growing up, my dad would inform me that I didn't deserve to be his son because I told him I was gay. for all the reasons that the right wing comes up with in denying same sex laws, all of them, the most vital, the most pressing, are always wrong. As a teen, my parents took me to Bible camp, and they brought the church pastor to dinner four times to try to prevent me from "choosing" to be gay. One of my dearest friends was taken to a place that stated it could "change" gay. They tortured him. He was taken to a standoff group. They put him in a tub of solid sheets of ice. They refused to give him food until he被他 was straight. For all the reasons you come up with against homosexuality, please tell me why, if you believe this lifestyle to be a choice, do young boys and girls choose to be harassed and beaten? The objective of the "homosexual agenda" is not to undermine "traditional marriage" whatever that is, it's to make a stand against those who are blinded by their own ignorance. It's to make a stand against those who have stopped listening to common sense because they believe in a non-comon sense book. It's to make a stand that the separation of church and state is still in existence today. It's to stand up against people and ensure that their religious freedom does not violate my civil liberties, guaranteed to me not by the Bible, but by the U.S. Constitution. The point is that no matter how far we've come, we still have a long way to go before people understand that just because they are learning, they don't know how other people live their lives.
