Q

PURPOSE & NATURE OF SEX:

What does marital mean?

A

When two people are in love, they usually want to commit themselves fully and exclusively to each other. In the Catholic Church, this commitment is expressed through the sacrament of marriage. The couple make promises that they will be together for life and will accept children lovingly from God. The promises form the verbal commitment between the couple; this commitment is then consummated in the physical union of sex, in which the couple totally give themselves to each other.

What does unitive mean?

A

Sexual love expresses and deepens the couple’s love for each other.
It is through the physical union of sex that the couple come closest to each other: ‘and the two shall become one flesh’ (Mark 10:8).

Q

THEOLOGY OF THE BODY:

What is idea 9?

A

Sin distorts God’s original plan for human beings. It makes people selfish and self-centred. Extramarital sex can stop sex from being a sign of total commitment and love, and instead it can become a form of exploitation for personal pleasure. In the case of adultery, it is also the breaking of a promise, so it becomes an issue of justice rather than just of sexual morality.

True mutual love includes responsible parenthood, and not having more children than the couple can lovingly provide for. The female body naturally has periods of fertility and of infertility.

The warning of Jesus -‘everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart’ (Matthew 5:28) - reminds all people that unfaithfulness starts in the mind.

1) Sex in marriage is “a unity that,beyond union in one flesh,leads to forming on heart and soul”, this shows that sex within marriage is sacred, doing sex outside of marriage ruins the significance of sex

2) Sex within marriage deepens the relationship between the husband and wife,showing the sign of love between God and humanity.By having sex outside of marriage,you deepen your relationship though after having sex after multiple times it ruins the purpose of deepening bonds

3) Sex is a delicate, intimate, emotionally charged experience. When someone experiences an extremely powerful bond and suddenly is abandoned,it causes great pain making the person more selfish and lustful towards others.This is why sex must only be done with married people.
