I was attending John Paul’s II courses ”Theology of body” .
But those lectures are highly philosophical there is no much life in it.
(Church isn’t much practical, but often metaphysical, also there are great deal of questions which desperately have to be answered.)
You have great deal of restrictions which makes your sex not much spontaneous & creative:
- not to use condoms, so during sex you can’t relax (and can’t enjoy) because of fear of conception (it’s maybe not very big problem if you don’t have children yet, but what if you have already 6-7 of children, and all of than because of using the natural methods?)
- you can’t ejaculate outside of female body, even if you both like that form of sex (great deal of women like to feel warm sperm on their chests, and have fantasies on that),
– it’s forbidden to give your woman pleasure by oral stimulation and she also can’t help you to get erection by oral stimulation, and again you both want to have oral sex but church forbids that.
When talking about oral sex, it’s not only about pleasure, it can help the man with erection’s problems, and it can make woman to achieve orgasm, there are some women which can’t achieve orgasm by vaginal stimulation,
- Anal sex is also forbidden, no matter if we both enjoy (have fantasies) about that,
- Some people go as far to saying church permits us only missionary position.
- All your sexual life is over planed because you both have to track your woman’s fertility days, it’s not very much spontaneous, and also it’s not very easy.
By doing that, you know (if it’s so) exactly day, hour, second when you’ll have to have sex, and it’s very boring.
The sex is well planed & prepared activity, there is NO ANY SURPRISE.
When you wake up with your wife, you two check her fertility and you say, ”we will have sex tonight”, very boring!
It’s not much different from planing the family monthly budget, and we all know how it’s interesting and ”relaxing” (I’ll not talk about fun).
So, how can anyone expect people to not to become frigid and to have passionate and pleasurable sex when we have to ”dance” (to have sex) between such narrow constraints?
There are also great deal of other problems which are directly or indirectly linked with mentioned restrictions.
Whats about women which have irregular monthly menstrual cycle, and about fact natural methods have high failure rates in such cases?
Will church leaders help us to raise more than 3-4 child, or church expect us not to have sex after our 3-4. pregnancy?
Please don’t answer if you’ll use well learned phrases and religious lines.
The problems I mentioned need to be answered in practical manner, the answers have to be usable for practical life.

Where did you get this crap? I went to a theology of the body conference and half the stuff you are talking about is BS. Oral stimulation, who said that was out? Show me something that says you can’t do that. Anal sex is forbidden? Only missionary position…whatever. Whoever was leading that conference was forcing their puritanical views on you.
EDIT: If you want practical advice about theology of the body read christopher west’s book.
