Men are often astounded to find out that if a woman doesn't want to think about sex, she just doesn't. Click. Turn the switch off. Because so many men have used pornography to teach them about women, they internalize that this is how "real" females respond. They imagine women are fantasizing all the time, and experience some kind of withdrawal if they're "not gettin' any."
Women are equally as ill-informed. Few women I have ever met in my life understand how much mental energy a guy has to use everyday to control his sexual thoughts. They have no idea what it COSTS a guy to be faithful to her.
If every woman could understand this illustration, it would dramatically change her relationship.
Ladies, I want you to think of a time when you had to go to the bathroom REALLY bad. You find a public restroom, but when you open the door there's 6 other gals ahead of you.
So there you are standing in line, waiting your turn. You know the thing you do in your head to keep from wetting your pants? That's what its like all the time for a guy.
Graphic, specific and visceral thoughts just pop into his head thousands of times a day. 24/7. He can't help it. But he knows if he spends any time thinking about any particular thought, he'll have to deal with a physical reaction that goes along with it. So, all day, every day, he has to redirect those thoughts, just to function.
BUT (because of the way women dress) everywhere HE goes, imagine that guy whose working hard at redirecting his thoughts, everywhere he goes hears running water. [Note: this is an auto-pee-trigger for a girl, in case you didn't know.]
The truth is, most guys want to treat women with respect. But if a woman wants to be treated with respect and dignity, she has to make it possible for him to think about her as a PERSON.
It is an immutable fact of natural law that when your cleavage is out there, he's not thinking about YOU, he's thinking about your chest. When your pants are so tight he could tell if a dime in your pocket was heads-or-tails... he's thinking about your butt.
For him its involuntary... just the way he's wired. But, lady, YOU had control over what you put on today. If you want to be treated with respect and dignity, check your message before you leave home and see if it says, "I am my boobs." Or "I'm a vagina."
And one last word... ladies, if you're married to a guy who doesn't cheat on you --- even if he's not meeting all your needs --- I say, Be grateful your husband wins the daily battle to be faithful to you. Its a lot harder than you think.

Now that explains a lot about us (guys) that I never heard or read before...Amazing & enlightening info, Karen! You're the BEST!
Hi Karen,
Thanks for giving us faithful guys credit. I hope I can get my wife to read the article. It is amazing how much misinformation is out in the media. Please continue your struggle to tell our teens the truth. Arthur
I like the way you see things, Karen. Thanks for doing the blog! Pam
Karen,
You have dissected the sexual thoughts of Teens down to the bones! I dont think any one could have done it better.
Thanks for the insight. Hope parents and teens will read and realize that,with God, self control is possible. Without Him, hormones can be Sheol!
I thought it was just me. I just cannot get my eyes off sexy ladies. It's a struggle everyday. I am adamant that I will not cheat ever again but its hard - I'm successful so far.
i have kinda wanted to say that but...my girlfriend would get mad at me in some way so i just keep my mouth shut.
Thank you - I'm so sick of misinformed women thinking and saying that 'men are all pigs/ b*stards etc'. Yes, I WANT to respect women and I generally do but it does get hard (pun not intended) when women play the game of wearing revealing clothing and then feigning annoyance when they're treated disrespectfully.
If you haven't already, I hope you write an article about the ways men are ungrateful towards women because I'd really like to know.
