For a Christian guy, the temptation isnt really there unless your going to places, or hanging with people you shouldnt be in the first place. OF course the big question arises if you have a girlfriend...in which case you should only have a Christian GF in the first place.
I don't know about that. I think the only way to effectively remove the "temptation" if you will (the desire for sex), is to either completely isolate yourself from the rest of humanity from early childhood (and never seek out the company of anyone, especially of the opposite gender... the term for this being "bush eye", which means that you've been in the wilderness too long that you go after the first one you see), or to castrate yourself and become a eunoch. Beyond that, I think the desire is pretty much there to stay... Now, whether God takes that desire and lessens it upon telling you that you are meant to remain single, or if he brings you to someone who is going in the same direction in life, that's really another matter. Ultimately, I think everyone here is trying to make sense of our singleness from where we are at, and the issue of sexuality is one of those core issues of humanity.
