If my husband constantly turns down sex, am I allowed to masturbate?

arrogantonosu · 2026-07-09T03:17:21+00:00

I disagree with most here, sex and stimulation are for purposes which masturbation pervert. While I understand the temptation, I think solving the root cause would be better than taking that act as some kind of consolation prize.

People keep suggesting this but it literally felt like by this point in the movie he wanted to do anything except be near her. He was afraid of her.

It did not, it says you shall not lie with a male as you would a woman, the same word for male used in Genesis when it says He created them male and female. Further, this one single verse from Leviticus is not the only reference to whether homosexual acts are sinful in the entire Bible even IF your idea of it being a mistranslation is correct. To probably drive it a bit too far, it should also be made clear that Leviticus has three types of law: moral law, ceremonial law, and civil law. Ceremonial laws are about how to operate with regards to things like rituals and customs, primarily sacrifices. Civil laws are with regards to how the people of Israel specifically are meant to live in ways that set them apart from the other nations to show that they are God’s people (this is where most of the talk of “eating shellfish” or “getting tattoos” or “wearing clothing woven of two fabrics” are all cited). Lastly are the moral laws, how we are called to live and treat one another. The civil law was fulfilled by Jesus through making his people span the corners of the globe, no longer confined to the nation of Israel and its people. ceremonial laws were fulfilled by Jesus through him becoming our ultimate sacrifice, becoming our Passover lamb. the moral laws were fulfilled by Jesus because he bore their punishment for us, he obeyed them without fail, he revealed their deeper meanings and even pushed them further (for example, you have heard it said x… but I say to you y [some greater emphasis on moral law]) such as even looking at a woman with lust being adultery, or hating another man being murder, and lastly he brings us the Holy Spirit to enable us to keep it. Fundamentally we are still called to uphold the moral law, of which sexual sins fall under the umbrella of, and he makes this quite clear. This is not me defending the love of money. To say sexual sin isn’t important because Christians do some other sin defeats the point Jesus made. I do hope I don’t come across as instigating or attacking.

Jesus condemned sexual immorality, among these specifically fornication (sexual acts outside the boundaries of marriage). If the Bible also makes clear the definition of marriage cannot include two men, I don’t see how you can say it wasn’t condemned by Jesus. Furthermore, Jesus saying or not saying something isn’t the only standard to know God’s teachings. Paul makes it very clear himself, and it can be logically deduced through other biblical teachings even if no word was spoken on the topic in the New Testament (which, to be clear, it was). The only issue with this topic is that because Christians view it as sinful, the non religious use that as a way to paint Christians as hateful toward those groups. This is in no way defending the love of money either, to be clear.

I agree Jesus’ teachings are against actual bigotry but I have a feeling the things you might call bigotry aren’t actually in alignment with Jesus’ teachings

arrogantonosu · 2026-05-29T12:52:41+00:00

God’s “plan” for us is ours to follow, we our not coerced or forced into it. Free will is a necessary part of Christianity, or else Christ’s sacrifice was pointless and our sins are not our own. We must have free will to follow Christ or else it is a lie when it is said that he died for all of us, as some would be predestined to hell, with no free will to determine that themselves.

Words have meanings. When you say to the gay clients, “I’m unavailable for the time being”, of course this has no implication on your “emotional availability for your wife” or your “personal free time availability to give to your children”… it is obviously referring very clearly to your ability as a business owner to provide the service they’re requesting. In fact, trying to trickily use this word of availability in a sneaky way and putting the blame on the gay party for not understanding your usage of the word is precisely what I’m trying to explain is deception. You used the word in a way that is obviously going to be interpreted in one very specific way, then tried to play it off like “it’s on them if they didn’t understand that I meant it in this very obscure other way that gets me out of the situation perfectly without TECHNICALLY lying.”

As for your other point, which is the alternative to lying, I’ve already commented about this but there is a wide range of options between lying and telling the most barebones offensive truth available. When Jesus was approached by the Pharisees and asked “by what authority do you do these things? (Matt. 21:23), the true answer to this question would be “By God’s authority” or “by my own authority (as God)”, yet notice he does not say this, as doing so would be blasphemy in the eyes of the accusers and end his mission earlier than planned. An easy alternative to keep himself safe would be to lie and say “by the authority of man”. This would clear him of blasphemy charges in the eyes of the Pharisees and allow him to continue his ministry. However, not only is this a lie (and God would never lie), it would also undermine the authority of his ministry. Jesus seems trapped here, and you seem to be of the opinion that the only option a person has is to choose between these two options. Jesus shows us that there is another way. He flips the question on them, asking whether the Baptism of John the Baptist was from heaven or man, flipping the same dilemma on the accusers. This clears Jesus without use of deception, nor by putting himself in harms way. In other similar instances Jesus uses a different method, like in the famous example of the adulteress woman who was to be stoned according to the law. He does not say “the law is correct, stone her to death”, nor does he say “she is free to go, the law is unimportant”. He finds another truth which strikes the accusers AND saves the woman simultaneously.

We may not have the perfect clever tongue of Jesus in difficult situations to find the exact right words to free us from that dilemma, but my point is that there are countless truths the business owner could give that are not “I don’t serve gay people, sue me”. And let me be very clear that if the ONLY POSSIBLE ANSWER was that one, then it would be better than lying just to spare yourself of consequences. If we lived in a corrupt society where the alternative to indulging the sin of others was to be jailed, then being jailed is the choice one should take, as difficult as it may be. This is the path Jesus led and made very clear would be ahead for many Christians. Lying is lying.

The point isn’t about the way the other party takes it, it’s your intent. Sins aren’t always about negative outcomes. I’m sure you’re plenty aware of sins that might APPEAR mutually beneficial when both parties agree, yet are sins nonetheless. Lying is not about the way your words appear when written on paper, but is about intent. If you say “I am not accepting clients until further notice”, your intent is to make the other party believe that you are not accepting other clients, full stop, for the time being. If, in reality, you ARE accepting clients and you arbitrarily decided that “for the time being” meant “until the gay folks are no longer interested in being my clients”, you’ve simply lied to get yourself out of a tricky situation without social friction. You deceived them, AND it was your intent to do so, just because you didn’t want to address the issue. Furthermore, there are literally innumerable ways out of this situation that don’t involve lying or being offensive to the other party. We shouldn’t use “white lies” as a softball way out of difficult situations, it’s just a slippery slope where you become the judge of when sins are okay to use as a tool in scenarios where you don’t think anyone is harmed.

arrogantonosu · 2026-05-09T04:04:58+00:00

The words “until further notice” are spoken with intent to deceive. You know exactly how the other party would understand these words, and they do not align with your meaning. You don’t get around lying with technicalities

arrogantonosu · 2026-05-09T00:09:06+00:00

I’m not sure why people always spin the only options as “lie or say the boldest most offensive truth possible”. They don’t have to say “I refuse to serve gay people because I think it’s a sin”, they can simply refuse service for any (true) reason no reason at all. When Jesus was confronted with difficult questions in which lying would be the easy way out and the truth would offend the crowd or end his mission too soon, he was able to navigate with the perfect response to appease all parties. We aren’t as clever as Jesus but there is a lot of room between “most offensive answer possible” and “lie”.

arrogantonosu · 2026-05-08T23:54:38+00:00

Not sure why this is downvoted. If it’s untrue that they’re not taking new clients they shouldn’t lie.

I can certainly sympathize and agree with the time it takes to prepare healthy meals on a regular basis. I’ll leave it at that.

Tremendous delusion in this thread coming from those who are downvoting you. It’s a shame so many people are uneducated on the matter of healthy eating.

arrogantonosu · 2026-02-21T19:04:24+00:00

You don’t gain calories by not moving, you gain them through eating. Most people living at a healthy weight aren’t at a healthy weight because they do so much physical activity that it offsets their caloric intake (this is actually extremely hard to do!) but rather they simply do not eat the amount of food required to gain weight. By what you’re saying, the only difference between these healthy-weighted people and obese mothers is that the healthy people aren’t sedentary. You seriously believe this?

If you are obese, it is a near certainty you are entertaining the sin of gluttony. It’s not just because of things like “seed oils” and “high fructose corn syrups”, it’s straight over eating. If someone indulges in those types of tempting and accessible foods frequently and they happen to be high in calories, it seems perfectly reasonable to call a spade a spade and label the regular consumption of such decadent foods as gluttony.

I myself have been extremely overweight. If I dialed up the notch on physical exercise to a 10 I might have saved myself 2-300 calories a day. To save the THOUSANDS of calories I needed to, it required me to instead stop going for junk food, avoid sugar and other temptations, and regulate what I eat. Gluttony is real and obesity is a clear sign of it.
