LIVE HUMBLY ACT BOLDLY, A PSYCHOLOGIST TELLS WOMEN.

     

Cup of Conversation...breakfast time.

    Apparently no one will raise an eyebrow to the news that men are more addicted to porn however, out of curiosity and the desire to please their sex partners,  women are increasingly being attracted to pornography--but the danger is, these women end up becoming addicts.

 A clinical Psychologist and  a behavioral health consultant Dr.Jennifer Mitchell, PsyD made this revelation at this months edition of Cup Of Conversation at the Crossroads Church, Seguin-Tx.
Explaining further, she said studies have shown that watching pornography causes certain hormones like Dopamine and Oxytocin in the body to be released, and oxytocin which is also known as the "love hormone "  is the kind of hormones which promote maternal bonding in breastfeeding moms and their babies so in effect,  one becomes more and more attracted or addicted to pornography without even knowing. Adding that due to that bonding effect, most cases , people do not find the same satisfaction in their partners no matter how good they  try to  apply what they watch in their  relationship and women suffer at the end because they are forced to focus on their sexuality rather than being sensual.

Speaking as the quest speaker on the topic Pornography and Women, Dr Mitchell admonished women to be more in-tune with themselves and strive to develop who they truly are other than being objectified and not having to say no.

She also expressed worry about the rate at which  women are increasingly being objectified and pointed out how  TV commercials portray women in almost every product- even  children ads are not spared. She also called on parents to be mindful of how they compliments their children . Adding that using certain compliments like " ...oh! look how hot, sexy or beautiful you look in that" they rather draw the kids attention to what they are wearing rather who they are, that according to her, some how may contribute to sexually objectifying the child.
Dr.Jennifer Mitchell ,  said although society from ages have shown women as object, the truth is women's true identity is in Jesus, because from the cradle to the grave women were there and God knows the worth of women. She said even though the cultural practice during Jesus time like it is in most cultures today, often condemned and relegated women to the background, Jesus always saw women beyond their sexuality. Buttressing this point, she made reference to the book of Luke in the bible and how Jesus offered full discipleship to women and hoe He treated women without condemnation " women can also receive God's grace and forgiveness"   therefore women do not have to choose or forced to be sex objects but rather LIVE HUMBLY,ACT BOLDLY

 The Meeting brought together more than two dozens of women not only to intaracts but to also worship and acquire more knowlegde. Oh! and as usual, there were plenty to eat and drink ...Yea! it is called CUP OF CONVERSATION.
