Sex at Church

On Saturday we went to a marriage seminar at church called Stoking The Fire, and it was basically all about sex. The speaker was Patricia Weerakoon, who is a sexologist and a christian. What sort of a term is 'sexologist'? Couldn't they think of something better than sexologist? If you specialise in feet they give you a good, scientific sounding name like Podiatrist, they don't call you a Footologist. Sexologist. I never.

Anyway, the course was really good, and I got a lot out of it, but I gotta say, I found it pretty embarrassing. I didn't realise my sensibilities were quite so delicate. There are some words you don't really ever want to hear your minister say. Of course there were no inconspicuous seats left so we had to sit right up the very front, where everybody could see me squirming, and see my ears turning redder and redder. I'm all for frank discussion, as long as I can be somewhere else at the time, maybe listening over an intercom from a secret location.
