If your female wife insists on having sex with you (her male husband) during her menstrual period then go ahead, do it. I personally have never heard of a woman wanting to have sex during the heavy flow part of her menstrual period though. And if you husband, want to have sex with your wife during her menstrual period but she does not want to, get creative! You are married after all and working through the situation may bringing you to a closer bond together and help promote better communication.

There are a few things I don't need to ask ANYONE whether I should do or not. I don't even need the scriptures; THIS IS ONE OF THEM! I don't see the point!
Sex is great! It ain't that great, however, that I can't wait a few days until it can be good clean fun!
I think the once a month break is good for the partnership. It makes the reunion a reason for celebration. I guess it all depends on how you use your romance playbook...

I would have looked at my wife, Faye, cross-eyed if she had ever come on to me to get busy while she was menstruating. I would have asked that person, 'Where is Faye, and what have you done to her?' Because there's no way she would have had anything to do with something like that! I don't mean after we had gotten older, I mean when we were very young.
It was a cooling off period, is how I looked at it. It made the reunion special! Plus, some things should be embarrassing, I think. If this isn't, then what is?
I don't know how anyone can miss such an obvious setup to an opportunity for a monthly reunion. It's like Christmas coming once a month for a young couple.
I guess it all depends on the value a man places on his wife, and the value a woman places on her husband.
