Resources for women who's partner is engaged in porn:
Highly redemptive book that focuses on the spiritual health of the woman NOT on fixing a spouse. If you are dealing with a struggle in your marriage and when you feel betrayed it is easy to work on saving your marriage by trying to control the healing of your husband and enevatibly women try to save their husbands. This is a disappointing role to take. Healing comes from God and what women often ignore in this situation is their own spiritual brokenness-- instead they often tear themselves apart in an unhealthy way and become broken by lies rooted in pain rather than broken and healed by the soothing and exact hand of God. This book focuses on the latter form of healing: When Your Husband Is Addicted to Pornogoraphy. http://www.amazon.com/When-Your-Husband-Addicted-Pornography/dp/1936768631
Another good resource for couples working through porn addiction within the marriage is Peace Maker Ministries. This ministry focuses on the restoration of individuals and the relationship.
Finally women are not exempt from porn addiction: XXX church is a great resource and brings about awareness to a largely silent disease.
Porn use and addiction is often normalized, but the fact that it is normalized does not mean that it is healthy. Nonreligious studies just as religious studies present time and time again that Pornogoraphy is HARMFUL to the individuals that partake in its use along with those effected by the addiction relationally. Sex was made within a certain context to be / stay good-- porn nuters men and women's sexual drive and workers like a drug where one dose is not enough-- you have to keep turning up the dose until nothing works anymore. Until the most romantic evening with your smoking hot wife just won't do it for you anymore. Starting out when many young boys and men are preyed upon by Pornogoraphy websites i doubt they cite that disclaimer, but the result is inevitable.
Women and men get abused by the sadistic acts that come from porn
Instead of learning each other and getting creative together which brings you closer you are introduced to sadistic and extreme sexual acts at such a high dose that the possibility for creativity and mutual exploration within a couple is no longer a possibility. The mystery is stolen away.
You robbed your wife of her mystery-- the porn industry robbed the mystery of your wife from you. Get angry. Make a change. Get your (better) longer lasting sex drive back. Own your own sex drive within your marriage instead of letting a money hungry, and often criminal industry tell you how to use what God created for good.
