This is a difficult subject simply because it is such a strong drive in nearly every person (especially men) and even those that are married.
The thing we have to realize is how big the snowball can get. First off to do this once and to think of a woman that is not your wife is a sin since Jesus said that to look on another woman in lust is to be an adulterer at heart. But it can become a force too great to reckon with. It can become so that it gives Satan a foothold in your mind. So that you may come up to a Christian sister and she may not even be dressed provocatively and she may just be having a conversation with you and in your mind you are just thinking about how good looking she is to an extreme point.
I think it is a very dangerous practice to become involved in. However do you consider it wrong when you are married, and sex (for one reason or another) is temporarily unavailable, and you think only of your wife?
