I have read a good amount about sex/porn addiction over the last 16 months, but all I have gleaned about the use of lingerie is that I should get rid of catalogs if they are part of his problem, and that it is a waste of money. What I have not seen addressed is whether or not lingerie is/can be part of a healthy intimate relationship in a christian marriage. And then I suppose the term lingerie covers a lot of ground. Is it a spaghetti strap gown that is cut lower than anything I would wear around kids/guests? Or does it have to be see through/skimpy before it qualifies? I am asking this here because I would appreciate opinions from both men and women, especially as to whether its use is related in any way to porn addiction.
Thanks,

Well, I'm no expert on addiction or relationships, but I'll give you my 2 bits. 
I don't see a problem with you wearing lingerie for your husband, or to spice up the marriage bed. In fact, that can be a good, healthy thing.
As for the catalogs, if your husband has an addiction to pornography, maybe you could keep them somewhere he won't see them? Or you could shop for lingerie online in private?

If the lingerie is enhancing your beauty then fine. If he finds himself fantasizing because of the lingerie then not fine.
The lingerie catalogs could cause him to stumble, him and any other man whether they are a porn addict or not.
Pictures of half naked women probably don't belong in a Christian home at all.
