Could '50 Shades' fixation be a sign of issues?

Could 50 Shades lovers be trying
to prove their sexuality? 
If you are all caught up in the 50 Shades of Grey hype' could it be because of a personal relationship problem?

The fact that 50 Shades of Grey is so readily celebrated by some in our culture, could a warning to us about the state of relationships.
Pornography, naughty themes, and temptation, triggered by the written word or pictures, are nothing new. They've been around since the beginning.
The Bible is full of stories of lust and an uncontrollable urge to have sex. It's not that creative, or original, as a form of expression.
There are scenes depicted on the walls of the Pyramids in Egypt that are wild and freaky by the standards of any era. It's what people do, and have been doing for a long, long time.
Study the racy frescoes uncovered in Pompeii. Before that city was destroyed about the year 80 AD, its residents were doing anything and everything, with anybody. Same with Rome.
It's all been done before and then some.
The red flag with 50 Shades is public display, and promiscuity, by otherwise respectable people.
But anyone in a sound relationship is not likely to fixate on the 50 Shades book, or the soon-to-be-released movie. So many times, people who have difficulty expressing their sexuality on a personal level, with their mate, must do it publicly.
Do you know a person who refuses to speak to his sister, but lights a candle at a shrine on Tupac's birthday? Or the woman who will not go see her parents, but cries with joy when she gets tickets to the Ellen  show?
Often people rush to profess allegiance to pop culture symbols of sexuality, but are dead to their own true fulfillment.
If you are drooling over the prospect of the 50 Shades movie, it is not a sign of a healthy relationship.
God meant for couples to have a robust sex life. Sexuality is a gift. And it serves as a reward for doing the hard work of perpetuating humanity.
And if you know what you are doing, you will not need 50 Shades. You should be turning your attention to your mate. Do that, and you can likely write your own book, much better than 50 Shades.If you concentrate on who you have, you're not going to be too interested in writing a book about it. You will be fulfilled by your relationship, not the fictional and cheesy union of others portrayed on pages or a on movie screen.
