we live in a fallen world. if you're looking for some system where people are immune to temptation, you're not going to find it. christ offers remission of guilt, not freedom from future temptation. most of us are going to need absolution frequently our whole lives. > men being the more unintentionally sexually pure overall. i don't buy that. men are just addicted to porn instead, which is *worse* than being a slut. there's a reason why aquinas supported prostitution being legal, despite its intrinsic immorality: natural sex with a whore is a lesser evil than masturbation (which is basically a form of sodomy).
