NOW.... is nudity wrong (to us) due to the fact that:

1.) We have been sexual abused, therefore, it effected us negatively?

2.) God said it is wrong, therefore, we should not look upon such things?

3.) It can damage a persons mind or marriage over time? - male & female.

I imagine there's something of all those things going on.... I'm not personally bothered particularly by nudity, I don't mind my bf watching it, sometimes I do think it's kinda gratuitous tho.

But I was never abused, and I can only imagine how upsetting it would be for you. So if you don't like nudity for this perfectly valid reason, I think your husband should try to refrain from it for your sake, or work out some kind of compromise with you.

As to the religious issue, I don't believe in the Christian God and prefer to come to my own conclusions on issues like these, but if you feel it is against your religious convictions and your own moral code, then certainly don't feel pressured into dropping your standards! If you believe God exists, then surely you should live in a way consistent with those beliefs, so far as it doesn't harm others, and your family should respect that.

I don't honestly know about damaging minds or marriages over time- maybe only if there were issues there already? Like lack of trust between partners in a marriage maybe leading to one getting jealous of the other watching nudity? I don't think it could cause it on its own but possibly..

So in conclusion, altho I'm not bothered by nudity, I think you are perfectly justified in the way you feel, and I think your husband should respect that. I'm not entirely sure if it's enough to ban him from watching nudity, but it doesn't sound like you're doing that at any rate.... hope this helped
