I once listened to a crazy christian pastor who was talking about relations between men and women, gender differences and marrige. He clearly stated that a woman who has sex with a man before marrige is a "nitwit of extraordinary proportions" and it's like she is "paying the architect before the house has been built".
This sounds very strange to me since he assumes women never want sex from men and also that sex is the only thing men want from a woman. How about for example men who have visited prostitutes and later on fallen in love with these? I wonder how he would explain that. This also makes me think of a quote from Jesus saying "A man who looks at a woman with desire has already commited adultery with her in his heart". What about women looking at men with desire?
It seems to me that christianity assumes women never want sex from men, and that it's always the other way around (similarity to feminism?) I also wonder how this has effected people in how they view themselves. It seems that similarly to islam, womens sexual desire is somehow even more sinful. That it somehow is a force that they want to put a lid on very strongly.
It's also a bit interesting to me that christianity views sex outside of marrige as sinful/dirty and that pornography also is making sex into something dirty. Same people behind both things.
