Like Your New Style

I liked the new format for MARRIAGE PARTNERSHIP. I especially appreciate that you are using more pictures of real people, instead of those funny looking cartoons.

Angie Stoner
Manheim, Pennsylvania

I would like to commend you for a great issue of MARRIAGE PARTNERSHIP. My husband and I read it from cover to cover, and the articles and information help us both. I enjoyed the new format of the fall issue and the more intensive articles. I'm excited about the changes that you're going to be making, too, especially decorating tips and ideas. An enthusiastic "thumbs up" for that!

Sexual Connection

I would like to comment on a section of the interview with Dr. Laaser [Fall 2000]. He says that if we admit that biology is what drives us, then sex is really important. My fear is that he is diminishing the importance of sex and what it means to a man. I don't believe that it is the biological release that drives a man to want sex, although that does have physiological implications for us. What a man really wants is to connect with his wife through sex. To say that we should accept a substitute for that is to ignore the basic drive in a man. As long as we have testosterone surges, we are going to face a struggle to satisfy our drive in a godly way with our wives.

Mixed Messages?

The content of your magazine has been of great benefit to my marriage. I am distressed, however at the mixed message that is sometimes portrayed by the photographs that accompany articles. What were you communicating about intimacy when alongside an article by Walter Wangerin, Jr., about how sexual intimacy matures with age [Summer 2000], you display a young, attractive couple who were not wearing wedding rings? And why did the cover of an issue with an article on resisting cyber-pornography [Fall 2000 have on it a bare-shouldered, sultry young woman embracing her suave "husband" (her left hand is discreetly covered, so the ring is questionable)? I hope that your magazine will continue to become a safer place for men and women to seek God's loving will for their marriage without being threatened by images that reflect the world's view of what is attractive.
