From the Bible
What does God have to say about lingerie? (verses we mention)
The fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon. – Song of Songs 4:11
Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. – Genesis 3:7
The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. – Genesis 3:21

7 Ways to Make the Most of Your Lingerie – The Forgiven Wife
I listened to your lingerie chat and one of the women mentioned that they had issues in the past with avoiding sex. I have had this same issue in the past which wasn’t dealt with appropriately by myself or my husband and led to some dabbling in porn on his part. We have had counseling and worked through a lot of issues on both our parts. I am no longer avoiding but I find myself having trouble forgiving myself for my contribution and also struggle with being vulnerable when it concerns my body as I am a very small busted woman and fight thoughts of being compared. My husband, of 36 years, has always been encouraging and when I comment on my size he says’ “I don’t care, just give them to me.” I just don’t want it to be too late to be the wife I should and want to be in the bedroom.
It’s never too late! You and your husband have many wonderful years ahead.
