The Secret Women’s Porn Problem (article)
Yes indeed. Many Christian women like hot, sexy, good looking men, and women get randy, want sex, and some even have sex.
But Christian literature and sermons about dating, gender roles, and marriage keep feeding everyone the mythology “only men want sex and are visual, and women are emotional, hate sex, don’t pay attention to what males look like.”
Let it sink in that women like LOOKING at in-shape men.
Too many people think, “Oh sure, women dig sex, but they like reading about it in racy novels, not looking at near-naked guys.” Nope.
Females like looking at nude, or near-nude, muscular, sexy, hunky hunk men. I cannot figure out why everyone (conservative Christian males in particular) seems so threatened to realize that women judge men on visuals, and they do it a lot.

Excerpts
- by T. Newbell
It’s much harder to find similar articles tailored for women, leading many to deduce that pornography remains a struggle only for men. When we don’t talk about women and porn, women everywhere hide in the shadows with this deep-rooted secret. Thousands, perhaps millions, of Christian women struggle with sexual sin, and we must speak openly about these temptations.
Many of these women start viewing pornography young—very young—and continue to struggle into their 20s. Three have volunteered to share from their stories.
…Helping Women Fight Sexual Temptation
These few stories offer a small sampling of a widespread problem.
Women, you are not alone in this struggle with temptation to sexual sin. You aren’t the only one ashamed of the sexually explicit material in your browser history or on your e-reader. For all who face these temptations, the power of the gospel enables you to say no to sin. Each of these women eventually confessed their sin to friends and received the grace available to them by the Holy Spirit to stop watching pornography.
