“Personally, I can’t imagine being a gynecologist and not being either titillated or repulsed, depending on the patient being examined. Why would becoming a doctor change anything? You really have to wonder what prompts a man to choose that path.”
It has to do with one’s values. I seriously contemplated the field when I was younger. I have a profound love for women, but simply as the people they are, and women’s medical problems are much more complicated than a man’s, and I only desired to be helpful in that area. It would never have been a source of temptation to me, because my purpose would have been one entirely of integrity and decency. I suspect you are young. The idea of principles being the source of one’s desires is no longer understood.

Not so much. Well into middle age. I have plenty of love for women for the people they are, but I will be fascinated by their bodies until my last breath. Integrity and decency don't by themselves propagate the species. That, my friend, takes lust.
