Ok now normally I don’t despise books as much as I despised this one. He blames all of his issues with intimacy and sex on the act instead of the way he is going about it. Because he slept around and has incredibly misogynistic and problematic views. He believes that the way a girl dresses can say yes even if she is saying no, and the fact that he knowingly took advantage of a drunk girl and then was surprised when she wasn’t happy with him is just so repulsive. It just seems like he has deep rooted issues that he is blaming on sex and also it just sounds like he has bad sex, not because it was pre-marital but just because it was bad sex. It wasn’t bad sex because it was pre-marital Jason, it was bad sex because it was bad sex. You have to do so much mental gymnastics to keep up with his incredibly flawed logic and honestly the book is not worth the time I spent reading it. I’d love that time back.
The author of this book, Jason Stevens, was a rugby league player in the NRL, so watching him play and following the game i was familiar with him and as a fellow Christian i thought i d give this book a go. Although i read it years ago, and it brought glory to God, i did not agree with a few things he writes about, but it was still worth a read.
I wanted to pass this book onto a friend but felt like I should read it before passing it on so I know what is in it. A very quick easy read that highlights the importance of waiting for marriage. So many good points that I agree with wholeheartedly.
Interesting read, although some of the views expressed are a bit backwards and place the blame in the wrong place (I know this book was written and published quite some time ago, but still... !)
