A Guide to Controlling One’s Sexual Desire

realsomeone
By realsomeone

"There are some ways through which one can control his sexual desire:

1- Getting married as soon as possible, even with little furniture and humble accommodation.

2- Observing moderation in eating and drinking in order to avoid stimulating one's desire.

3- Observing fasting, because it bolsters one's faith, preserves chastity, and protects one from evil thoughts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have said: "O youth, whoever of you is able to marry, let him marry, for it spares one looking at what one should not, or lapsing in adultery. And if he cannot marry, let him observe fasting, for it is a shield against evil."(Reported by Muslim)

4- Keeping away from anything that is sexually stimulating, such as pornographic pictures, erotic films and love songs.

5- Choosing good and righteous friends.

6- Keeping oneself busy in worship and spiritual acts.

7- Interacting with activities of the society in such away that it keeps a person away from thinking about sex.

8- Avoiding gatherings and places that bring men and women physically close to each other.

9- Trying to admire natural things such as flowers and beautiful scenery, which do not stimulate one sexually, instead of admiring girls and women."

1- I got married on a time and have a nicest woman on planet.

2- I am not eating chocolate and other afrodisiac food.

3- I am Christian Orthodox and I am fasting on Wednesday and Friday, also during Christmas and Easter faster.

4- I have removed all photos of my wife, in my walet I am keeping photos of Gerge Bush, Teddy Bears and Vini Pu. Instead of love and romantic songs I am listening only Ramstein.

5- My best friends are priests and members of Opus Dei.

6- I am keeping myself busy in worship and spiritual acts.

7- I am an active on forums where people speak only about politic

8- I avoid to go near Sofitel, Ramada, Rydges etc. I am sitting at home and socializing with my self.

9- My house is like a jungle with lots of flora and fauna.

But still I have a problem, sometime I catch my self thinking about s*x.

Need serious help, am I a bad person? What to do?

but i guess in the end the Christian system is unable to integrate life and religion together because of human manipulation.

Realsom, i' m not a Christian !

But my next point is....If yer a practising Musllim, then yer should already know all the Quran and teachings, and i' m guessing that a lot of other faiths dont really care ......

Wouldn't Item 8 worsen the situation (i.e., increase your desire)? For me, talking & interacting with women decreases my sexual desire. If I'm just looking at them, I look at those "bumpy bits" (as Britexpat called them) that shouldn't be looked at. When I talk with a woman, I think she's a regular human being -- same as me. Not a sexual creature to be stared at and obsessed over.

The hat doesnt fit, your way of putting things is like "just cuz thexonic was talking to a girl, means he's sleeping with her" thats the only thing that I can figure out from your argument and nothing else.

I dont falsly accuse people, I will talk based upon your own behavior towards not just me, but many other people. Insulting a group of people using foul language, infront of everyone at a resturant doesn't seem appropritate to me. May be in your dictionary its allrite. You see I dont like this dirty business of exposing others in public, something you like to do. So Lets leave my case alone, I clarified myself more than crystal clear. You on the other hand are a bit twisted up and I dont know whats going on in your mind, I dont even want to know. So like i said lets leave our personal lives away from the forum, even if it is an open forum.

Thanks for the clarification solomon. I was really confused.

The point is that some of us find the advice patronising and pointless. We avoid extra-marital sex by just having some self control and not having extra-marital sex.

If you need advice for how not to have sex outside wedlock, then you should be seeking professional, psychological guidance.

forbidden sex. Some of the suggestions should be viewed by his intention not necessarily per letter or word.

Like suggestion no.1, it should be viewed as if you want legitimate sex and not commit sins by making intercourse with not your wife or husband.

Everybody is entitled to his or her opinion. Anybody can interpret his thread in many wrong ways but his intention is about avoiding what he consider is forbidden SEX.

I think we are seeing the same problem and the same solution, but from two different angles.

My sole point is that enforcing strict separations between people and what they desire leads them to desire it more. Dietians will tell you that the worst way to lose weight is to go on a diet, because your mind becomes obsessed about food. It's all you can think about. In the end you want it so badly you actually eat more than a person who isn't conscious of their weight.

It's the same with sex.

If people treated one another like adults and they just mixed in ordinary social environments, they wouldn't have such a desire to have so much sex.

Preaching that people should control their urges and avoid sex and women and alcohol and drugs and speeding in their car and fast food and pornography just makes people want it more.

CB, I would judge myself before judging others if I were u, u claim to be a muslim and u dont even act like a proper christian.

I never claimed to be a proper muslim in any case, cuz alot of things that I do might be offensive in Islam and religious people do avoid it, like smoking, socializing with women, going to clubs or bars etc... these are not haram, these are makrooh which means they are bad for me but not a sin. Where as I dont do drugs, I dont drink and I dont sleep with women and I avoid having a girl friend.

I find it inappropriate to open my mouth about other people in public, so I would appriciate it if u get off my back please.

Rami, I agree with u 100%. People do such things because of lack of attention or to much attention. If parents raise them with proper and balanced attention, they might aswell think straight. But the thing is not about west or east, cuz I've met people like "thatguy" and a few others from the west who are married at a young age and they are living a very happy life, rather than being lost and chasing their hearts. I've also met a few arabs who are single and are above 24 yrs and live happily, I'm one myself. It all depends on what kind of attention we get in our childhood. I was a spoilt brat back in the days, but my mom slapped me and that is what made a real man out of me. It's like they say, some people learn it the hard way, I had to go thru it.

If you agree with the statement above, then you would naturally comply with that statement because you believe in it. However, going to an island and swimmiing with half naked women and interacting with them in bars etc. is not quite what I would call convincing - in my eyes.

1- Getting married as soon as possible, even with little furniture and humble accommodation.

--- I AGREE with that…coz you have your HUSBAND/WIFE to “do” it with….BUT REALITY CHECK: it’s a known fact that most married men do likes to flirt (or play with “fire” as well (whatever nationality/religion he has)

2- Observing moderation in eating and drinking in order to avoid stimulating one's desire.

--- I heard/know about aphrodisiacs…is this what you meant?

3- Observing fasting, because it bolsters one's faith, preserves chastity, and protects one from evil thoughts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have said: "O youth, whoever of you is able to marry, let him marry, for it spares one looking at what one should not, or lapsing in adultery. And if he cannot marry, let him observe fasting, for it is a shield against evil."(Reported by Muslim)

--- Fasting, virtue of Chastity….in short…CELIBACY…depends on the person, I guess

4- Keeping away from anything that is sexually stimulating, such as pornographic pictures, erotic films and love songs.

- I agree with the 2 items mentioned but “love songs” ????

5- Choosing good and righteous friends.

-- I agree… but the word “righteous” …kinda steep requirement you impose for anyone to qualify as/to be your friend.

6- Keeping oneself busy in worship and spiritual acts.

-- I believe in praying/spiritual activities would keep you pre-occupied but you need to enjoy other things in life…like going out to see a movie with friends, go on a trip, socialize….

7- Interacting with activities of the society in such away that it keeps a person away from thinking about sex.

CB, U r the one who is trying to relate something that has nothing to do with this subject and not me. I do have alot of social contact thats true, but that doesnt mean i am sleeping with one.

By the way one more thing, I don't agree with a few of the things that he has mentioned above, but I dont disagree with them either. In the end I am just a human who doesnt commit adultery and believes in being a virgin until after the marriage.

Please don't misunderstand me. I totally understand your beliefs and I can why, intuitively, they seem sound.

This culture here thinks 'tell people not to have so much sex and then they won't'. They expect this to work, in the same way that western cultures tell people not to take drugs.

We in the west have a few years more knowledge about these things. We know that they fail.

If you look at the US you will find high schools that teach 'abstinence only' programs, which basically tell students that the only way to avoid pregancy and STDs is to avoid sex altogether. This is true. Avoiding sex will avoid pregnancy. HOWEVER tell people this does not work. They need to be educated with the tools to deal with their sexuality, not have it brushed under the carpet.

To date there have been no scientific studies that have shown that teaching children that abstinence is the ONLY way to avoid pregnancy actually works. Some studies have found the reverse, that schools that tell their children not to have sex actually end up having more sex and higher pregancy rates.

U just proved my point and realsome's point. Arabs need to be a bit more open minded and mutual, where as west needs to be a little more conservative. They both r living on extremes, none of them are neutral. Where does it say in Bible that having a boy friend is appropriate? or in Quran, we make up some bullsh*t of our own, just to justify our desiers. Anyone who fears god or loves god, avoids such things. But not in today's world, in today's world people have an excuse called "oh those rules were 1400 years ago, now the times have changed" yes they have changed, they have gone worse and its not gonna get any better, it will get even more worse than it is now.

The priests and nuns that u mentioned above, I'm not a christian, but the rule that they have of not getting married, is not right, they are humans too, they have desires.

If you can't control your sexual desire at "gatherings and places that bring men and women physically close to each other" then you should probably be locked up!

Self-control is the answer, not avoidance and distraction.

We've seen all this before. Let's be straight.

For the longest time in the west, people thought that celibate priests and nuns, particularly Catholics, were pure and holy because they weren't having sex. It then emerged that huge, huge numbers of them were engaging in the most depraved acts involving minors and non-consensual sex. Their outward, public behaviour and preaching was totally at odds with their private lives.

It's the same here. In all the countries I've been to, I have NEVER met a people (the Qataris) who are so sexually active. A typical weekend is a trip to Dubai or Bahrain involving a hotel room and a dozen prostitutes (boys and girls). This is a country where cars with window tinting is banned because too many people were having sex inside. Where stretch limos were banned because too many girls were raped in them. Where housemaids are raped every day.

Seriously, at least in western countries people can have healthy sex lives. Here the guys just want to screw everything that moves because they are told day in day out that they must be celibate. If you've never met a Qatari (or 100) who is cheating on his wife with numberous prostitutes, you are living with your head in the sand, my friend.

Wise up.

Guys who look at a chicks and feel sexual desire are 'normal', according to most of the posters on this site.

Guys who looki at chicks and would rather be looking at flowers, worrying about their diet, and leading a lifestyle that allows them to avoid contact with women are called GAY.

If you don't want to bone a chick, fine, just stop preaching all your gay love messages to everyone. Let them chose their own path.
