  • Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

    So Yes, marriage bed can be defile. Some hints are given in the same verse: "whoremongers and adulterers God will judge".

    So prostitution, swinging, adultery, and by definition, all forms of sexual intercourse with another person other than the spouse defiles the marriage bed.

    However Paul did not say anything about the intimacy between the couple. So we may refer to the Song Of Solomon, particularly chapter 4 to know that most "foreplay" including oral sex and position like doggy style are acceptable.

    However sodomy (anal sex) is subject to debate.

    Some theologians say it's wrong, citing the destruction of Sodom (hence the word sodomy), Gomorrah and the tribe of Benjamin.

    But others says it's the choice of the couple. So I shall leave it to your own acceptance of anal sex.

    To conclude, the marriage bed can and had been defiled by many couples who engage in sex other than their spouse. But within the marriage, the way intimacy is conducted is generally acceptable, except for anal sex. (Ponography is "minor fault", not sin. Couples may enjoy it together but is usually discouraged.)

  • The only thing I can think of would be cheating. And by that I don't mean things such as swinging, open relationships or cuckolding. I mean purposefully lying to your partner, going behind his/her back and having extramarital sex without your partners consent and without his/her knowledge.
    That would be a very serious issue for me because it's not directly related to sex anymore; rather, it speaks volumes about that person's character and his/her values.

  • I guess if you're married for religious purposes then yeah but if not then nope. Whatever you do in your bed is only for you and your lover.

    • The answer is Yes child yed

    • Yes*

  • No, whatever both want is ok.

    Nothing wrong with any of the things you mentioned when agreed to in advance.

  • No. I'm not all that sure about swinging as that's no my thing but the rest of it is fair game for sure.

  • LOL if it's acts or situations that are agreed to by the couple, than to me it's never an issue. If you cheat with someone in a married couples bed, then that's a different thing.

    • Um I think once you're married, I believe you can do almost anything you want in a religious context anyhow.

  • I'm not really sure I understand the question 😂

  • I think there's a limit but that's between you and you husband/wife to figure it out

  • Yes, by eating in bed and leaving crumbs all over it.

  • I guess primarily if an act of infidelity was committed in it, then it would be sensible to consider it a defilement.

  • What hahaha

  • As long as the people doing the nasty are the same two people who originally got married: no. As soon as there is someone else though, that bed ain't fit for sleeping

  • Defiled is an odd word for consensual sex between a married couple. As long as both agree, how can it be defiled?

    • You didn't say that.. But I am sticking with , if both consent , no...

    • Look at the topic. And then I also capitalized defiled.

    • Oh damn never mind. I made a mistake with the topic

    • Show All
  • Yes... even with sex toys.. they open the door to infidelity

  • Sure

  • Having an affair in it might be a problem

  • For religion, nope. If it was, on that alone I'd be burning already.

  • Yeah

  • I suppose it can be defiled under the religion of those who partake in the defilement... it would differ for each religion I suppose

  • Anything that the spouce is not willing to do or allow.

  • Maybe
