Stereotypically, women are more likely than men to have demisexual tendencies and to therefore require that sex only occur within a committed relationship. However, this could be for other reasons besides demisexuality, such as a conscious desire to avoid getting pregnant by a person to whom one is not attached by marriage, or concerns about [[sexually transmitted disease]]s, which are more easily passed from women to men than vice versa. Such concerns, which lead to seemingly demisexual behavior, do not necessarily preclude women's having fantasies that they would, due to various qualms about practicalities, not wish to fulfil.

God will provide a means of overcoming temptation.<ref>1 Corinthians 10:13</ref> One can, for instance, distract oneself by thinking on those things that are [[true]], [[honest]], [[just]], [[pure]], [[lovely]], and [[of good report]].<ref>Philippians 4:8</ref>
