Do you look at the Venus de Milo and start thinking sexual thoughts?

Do you look at a female Olympic swimmer and think, "Rawr, what I would love to do with a hottie like her"?

Do you look at Eva Longoria and start thinking of ways you can cheat on your wife or get her to cheat on her newlywed husband?


No, no, and sometimes, sure. Don't you? What do you think about when you see Eva Longoria? Math?

Real men can figure out the difference between an image of beauty and a titillating porno picture. Those who can't really shouldn't hang out at the co-ed pool. (Heck, I wouldn't feel comfortable with them sitting at a men's only pool, either.)

No one is talking about porno pictures. We're talking about sexuality. Women in bathing suits are often quite sexy. You apparently think that the natural thoughts that occur in 99% of men who see these sexy women are evil. Your view, if I've described it accurately, is quite extreme. Or, are you denying that when "real men" (of all ages past puberty) see a beautiful woman in a bathing suit that they occcassionally think sexual thoughts? Is it your idea that "real men" should admire the woman's beauty without a shred of sexuality in the admiration? If so that's plain weird, and quite unnatural.

Lets suppose many many men when they see Eva Longoria often do think about having sex with her. This is likely a result of her role on the TV show, and her sexy beautiful appearance. Is Eva Longoria evil (or at least a bad Christian in this respect) since she's acting/appearing in a manner that is highly likely to produce these sinful thoughts amongst her viewers? That seems to me to be the logical conclusion to your views on the subject, and that's why it seems you should be advocating the burka (for married women) if you want to remove sexual thoughts about married women from the general public.
