About This Quote

"Keep your mind off sex" is a common saying that is often used in reference to the idea that you should not think about sex because it leads to sexual desire. However, when you think about sex, you are actually thinking about physical pleasure. If you are not thinking about sexual pleasure then you are not thinking about sex! To an extent, it is true that when you are thinking about sex, your body may be physically aroused, but this does not mean that your mind is thinking about sex. The idea of "keeping your mind off sex" can be misleading since it suggests that if you don't think about sex then you won't feel the urge to have it.
