@SolidHeart Well, what is the point if you watch but are not DOING it?

@SpiritualMan lol, do you prefer to be the one watched while having sex?

@SolidHeart That doesn't matter as long as I am doing it.

@SolidHeart Since when can't one be spiritual and sexual at the same time?
Two principles from the bible, put God first, and have moderation. That means to enjoy pleasures in moderation instead of denying them. The idea that we should deny them totally is an ancient Gnostic heresy condemned by the Apostles.
The bible lists sexual sins, of which are adultery, which means to take another man's wife or betrothed, coveting another man's wife, then also divorcing a wife to take another (and not for a more compelling reason), then two men, animals, incest (including adopted relatives), period sex (not sure if this carries over the New Testament), then also angels (from Genesis 6), rape and sexual assault. If one does NOT do the things on these list, one is not doing things antithetical to REAL spirituality as depicted in the bible. One may be going against other doctrines the bible condemns, but who cares about that? I don't. So in summary, as long as you avoid what the bible lists as a sexual sin, and you put God first, it is not unspiritual to enjoy your sexuality.
