BREASTS – LIKE CLUSTERS OF GRAPES ON THE VINE
Song of Songs 7:8
May your breasts be like clusters of grapes on the vine,
Sometimes I think my husband is more interested in my breasts than in any other part of my body. They capture his eyes and entice his hands and he is fascinated by them.
But breasts are tricky. What can feel great one day can feel painful the next. Breasts change dramatically with monthly hormonal cycles, pregnancy and nursing. During high estrogen cycles like ovulation, early pregnancy or menopause adjustments, the nipples can be painfully tender.
How you handle her breasts communicates a lot.
Do you respect her desires without pouting or getting defensive? Can you tell when her nipples are sensitive or even painful? Do you treat her with tenderness and care? Do you understand when her identity is stretched as a provider of sustenance to an infant? Do you adore a part of her body that in many ways defines her femininity? Do you devour her when she wants to be devoured?
Though every woman is different, I am going to stick my neck out and try to give you some clues on ways to approach and handle your wife’s breasts.
