I have a married Christian coworker who has not been in the mood to have intercourse with their spouse.. Of course the spouse started to become frustated because of the lack of intimacy..So in order to get in the mood the coworker told me that they watched an erotic movie and it did the trick and the spouse was satisfied..so I pose the question to watch or not to watch to ask Can or should a Christian that is married watch an erotic movie? Why or why not?
There relationship is the problem. they need to spend time getting to know one another, and looking after one another. More communication etc. Then it will change.

@rickyZ lustful ways can be wholesome with my spouse...I lust after my spouse all the time.....and they're happy about it...lol.. And God is also pleased with me loving/ lusting over my spouse... Marriage is honorable...
Lets stop trying to make sex and lust dirty...it's not a dirty thing when done decently and in order... It's only dirty when the person makes it dirty...a thief always thinks someone else is a thief...lol
Perhaps it's in our definitions. I understand what you are getting at and you're right. Perhaps what you call lust, others of us consider longing. I long for my wife, I long her all night long ;) if you get my drift. There's an emotional element driving the physicality... I drive it all night lo.... ok I'll stop :) But you get what I mean - physical 'lust' for a spouse is appropriate and fine. But I think for a lot of us, the term 'lust' connotates a lack of the emotional element... it's purely physical. Which of course I'm sure you agree, a purely physical lust is not appropriate.

I'm curious as to what you'd think of this...

Uh, no! That is sinful. They sell jell for that in the store. But God can put the spark back in their marriage. That trash is lust, not love. She needs to love her husband, kiss her husband, feel her husband. Maybe she can't feel the heat because she hasn't started a fire. Or maybe her husband wants to get to that point too quickly. Men heat up much faster then women. Light candles, create the mood, play a romantic song. Feed her chocolate lol.

It only takes a spark to make the fire burn and I'm not just talking the relationship with this couple
