Question #12: I am a wife who has had many children and my body has taken a beating and I would like to get a breast augmentation and possibly other cosmetic surgery for my stomach. Is this okay?
This set of posts comes from Pastor Mark Driscoll and his wife Grace. The sermon series The Peasant Princess brought up dozens of questions that they felt they should respond to. The result is this blog series: Christian Sex: Frank Answers to Honest Questions.
Answer: That is between you and your spouse and your doctor and your Lord. There are health risks to consider. Also, no wife should have this kind of thing done if she intends to attract the attention of men other than her husband or is consumed by making herself look perfect. Furthermore, no man should pressure his wife into this sort of thing, or attempt to make her look like someone else he is sinfully lusting after.
