There's no better place to find terrible marriage advice than in the best selling evangelical books about sex and marriage. Books where a fathers sexual attraction to his daughter is usually innocent (Dobson) or that a wife is a "dose of methadone" for her husbands unbridled sexual appetite (Every Mans Battle). Can't imagine why women don't find that appealing.

The best-selling Christian book that taught about sex did not once mention that sex was designed for women, too. Rather, it framed it as a male need, telling their female readers, “If your husband is typical, he has a need you don’t have.” WOMEN DON'T HAVE SEXUAL NEEDS?
She was so rattled at what she read in this book that she set out with two other women (her daughter and psychology graduate Rebecca Gregoire Lindenbach and epidemiologist and statistician Joanna Sawatsky) to conduct the largest study ever done on evangelical women’s marital and sexual satisfaction. Which led to her authoring "The Great Sex Rescue"
The good... the bad... and what do we do about it? Marriage and Sex edition.
