Do you guys think that lust is huge problem for men?

Everyone lusts. The issue is lack of self control and consequences, Entitlement to others ,and the sheer audacity that is felt to be necessary when trying to be or seek intimacy

Do men lust? Sometimes. Is it a huge problem? Depends on the man.

It's as much (or little) a problem for men as women. They just tend to be socialized differently.

Don't believe me? Please visit female-focused fanfic sites.

Lust itself? No. Having zero impulse control and making their lust women's problem? Yes.

Sort of

If men can control their lust, it's awesome! If they can't, it's terrible!

Not in general no. I think desire is normal. But when compared to desire, lust is kind of neurotic. Meaning it's a cover-up of your subconscious for a different need that the "you" isn't meeting, an over-projection of deeper issues onto something that's different, but close enough to allow for relative ease of cognitive dissonance.

Sex can be an expression of a type of intimacy, but it isn't intimacy itself. By far most people crave emotional intimacy first and foremost, might they be unable to express that. Once both have been experienced, sex is relatively insignificant.

But, unless the emotional work is done, one could easily fall into the trap to confuse the two and look for sex as a main means to experience and build intimacy.

Many seem to have the impression that not having sex is the worst thing. And I sort of understand why one might feel this way. But it's a type of victim mentality. You have everything you need at your disposal to discover yourself, basically the single most meaningful journey you can take. Other people and especially relationships can be very distracting in this regard.

I'm not saying don't have them. I'm saying get ready first and don't assume for a moment that those that do are any further than you are. The divorce rates come from somewhere.

Lust is not that problem. How men go about fullfilling their lust is where the problem comes into play.

Seems to keep the species going so I don't think it's bad.

Problem in what sense?

MrNeoCortex · 2023-07-09T15:46:36+00:00

I think the main difference is that men have lust for woman they wouldn't marry or be with in 100 years. This is, most of the time, not the case for woman.

ResistPrestigious373 · 2023-07-09T08:06:13+00:00

Um, yes.

SufficientDot4099 · 2023-07-09T17:43:32+00:00

No because sexual assault is not about lust

A huge problem for men who lack self-discipline. Otherwise, it is something absolutely essential for preserving the human race.

It's a problem for entitled men. Like many have already stated, all of us adults lust as it's only natural. It only becomes a problem when men (and women) feel that the world owes them sex.

JonF1 · 2023-07-11T00:03:12+00:00

Maybe? If you're buying sex dolls, fapping 1000x a day to weird shit and creeping on women and girls then yes its a problem.

As a whole the bigger problem is that both women and men are having significantly sex than before. Itemacy has become a lot harder to come by for everyone.
