In an attempt to halt rising divorce figures, the Church of England has published it's very own guide to sex. Growing Together (as in your relationship, not your...) is 120 pages of advice on how married couples should talk openly about their love life and what turns them on, and off.
"Sex, far from being naughty, is something holy and wonderful and something to be celebrated. Like any other skill, it has to be learned. . . be each other's teacher... A person from a prudish kind of home may find living with a partner who comes from a home where nudity and openness about sex is normal quite a threat."
It also follows some real-life couples who started their marriage with little experience... like Kevin and Mandy, the couple who were trying to conceive but were unsuccessful because "it turned out they had never had full intercourse." Sigh...
I think it's great that the church is supporting loving, sexual relationships. But do you think that this manual really has the ability to reduce divorce rates?
