Honor and support your husband as he seeks to honor you well.
My friend’s husband is trying to honor and love his wife well by securing her partnership in removing visual temptation instead of indulging it. She has a good man! And so do many of us wives. By making a conscious effort to look away from (or avoid altogether) suggestive images, our man is choosing to do the right thing. And the impact moves from the brain to the heart as he chooses to prioritize us and the health of our marriage. So if and when your husband asks for, or secures for himself, similar boundaries to temptation—thank him for being a good husband, be a supportive partner, and help him fight back against the visual temptations that are so prevalent in our culture today.
