ABSTRACT
The relationships married women have with their pornography using husbands are complex and complicated. Wives and husbands engage in a continuous cycle of discovery, confrontation, demands for change, ultimatums, extraction of promises of change, forgiveness, and return to relative peace. Husbands and wives maintain a state of denial, except when crises of compulsion, discovery, and betrayal break through until reassurance and forgiveness re-establish the status quo and the cycle is reinforced. All the women struggle internally and externally with this issue. It impacts their spiritual, emotional, sexual, intellectual, and relational lives.
