Mike Morrell comments:
"I'm sure Dr. Crabb doesn't intend this, but I hear a lot of sex-negativity underlying his overall message about male-female friendships (which he intends to be positive). It's kind've a rehash of the old saw, "Sex is filthy, so save it for someone you love." By contrasting "loving a woman for her soul" versus her femininity, he kind've sets up cross-gender friends in a more exalted and 'spiritually pure' space than spouses!"
