With a nubile and willing female lying just feet from you?
Room for Sally built when?

Well, no, but I’ve passed up willing nubile women — or at least attractive enough physically to suit me — on some occasions. Men continually encounter women who are sexually attractive but best avoided because of social considerations (e.g., married women, under-age women, close relatives, dangerous women, psychos, and so forth). Both men and women are continually having to control their sexual urges, and it can be done. As the very macho Ernest Hemingway once said, men sometimes imagine that they can’t get along without women, but they can (quoted from memory, something to that effect).

Even without considering the possibility of conception elsewhere, I find it very hard to believe that this was the sleeping arrangement for the entire time that Hemings was conceiving.
