We have a limited view of female sexuality, and silly ideas defined by those who are simply too afraid to acknowledge its depth, meaning, and beauty have been given the power to decide what female sexuality is and what it means. --No more.
God said everything He made is good, and He made you sexual. He gave you a sexual nervous system when He wired you together in your mother's womb, and your body was designed to respond to sexual stimuli--it is good. Sadly, we have focused mostly on what is bad and because of this fear driven fact we have missed what is good. I'm not in denial, there is sexual bad. There is plenty of sexual bad, and the Bible talks bluntly about it. God doesn't pretend humans haven't used what was meant to be good, beautiful, and sacred for bad and evil. No. He tells the truth and so must we. And yet we must equally hold on to the good. Sex is sacred and beautiful and there is no greater nonverbal way of expressing love than the sharing of two bodies committed to marital bliss.
Even though sexuality isn't simplistic, I believe it is a noble battle to be fought for and a treasure worthy of being sought after. Your sexuality is a gift from God. We cannot deny, ignore, or take for granted this beautiful gift, lest it die. God made you sexual for a purpose. He has a plan. Are you willing to discover and reclaim the beauty of this mysterious gift? If you are, then I invite you to move past your pride, hurt, and prejudices, and discover all God was saying when He made you a woman.
