Study Reveals Conservative Christian Women Face Unsatisfying Sex Lives

A study published in the Sociology of Religion reveals that conservative Christian women often experience poor sexual satisfaction and higher rates of sexual pain disorders, linked to the religious ideals of sexual purity. Researchers found that beliefs in purity culture, which emphasize sex as a female obligation and male entitlement, contribute to these issues. The study highlights the negative impact of viewing sex as sinful, leading to trauma-like responses during intercourse. With abstinence-only education likely to persist, these patterns may continue among conservative Christian communities.
