You are speaking of a learned, practiced, catechised creed. I am speaking of biology and the subconscious mind.

You would be shocked at how many ostensibly Christian men would be all over a disease-free Pamela Anderson-type in two seconds if they thought they had a chance with her. Because they realize they don't have a chance (or because of learned fears) they are free to grumble about sin and and how they would never do such a thing and how the world doesn't measure up to their standards. It's a defense mechanism - and the louder they protest, the more they've been thinking about it.

But when put to the test, biology speaks louder than any creed. I'll stick to the 98% estimate. ;)

"the louder they protest, the more they've been thinking about it."

Plausible denial is certainly a common 'cover' for sin.

OTOH, someone who genuinely walks the straight and narrow fixes his/her mind on that which is right.

As re: your statement of your belief that 98% of males would acquiesce to the sexual availability of a messed-up beautiful woman, thanks for the acknowledgement of its being only your personal estimate. My own observations lead me to an estimate that is somewhat higher. Regrettably, not substantially higher. 85%

But ladies, hunks striving for righteousness are out here!

You can't generalize like that because you can only speak of those men in your sphere of accquaintace

Perhaps you don't know any truly sold out to Jesus men?

Not to say these men don't have temptations but they have a different view point of women and sex.
