I dont have the leshonos in front of me ,but here goes.

The Gemara says that an isha is like a untensil full of feces and blood,but nevertheless everyone is running after her ,how i this so? Gezeras Melech he! Which means,in order for there to be a continuation to mankind, Hashem decreed that men have to be attracted to women (and the decree is being obeyed pretty good!) eventhough in reality, its something to be disgusted/not lusted .

Does this mean that women dont or should not be respected?G-d forbid to suggest such a thing! A nonjew is Tzelem Elokim-Made in the Image of Hashem,and a Jew has that, plus a Neshama Kedosha,so respect upon respect is required(unless that person is a rasha meroosha).

Does this mean that i MUST lust after her?( hey a decree is a decree).G-d forbid to say that ,Viatah timshol bo! and you will/should conquer him ( the yetzer hara)!

So my main question is where does this leave us, regarding the temptations of the street? And in what practical way can we make use of this precious secret from Chazal?(and it is a secret because suggest this idea to someone who is not ma`amin in Chazal and ask if they agree to this ,or are they vehemently opposed.)

To be continued ,be`ezras Hashem.

To be fair, this is the "Torah & Chizuk Approach" board, which is, and I quote:

A Board for Yidden who are not as addicted, and for whom Torah/Chizuk/Chassidus can still help them stop.

Just pointing that out.

Yup I totally get that... I just felt that after what must be nearly a year of posting and 5 days clean, that ieeyc is not going to get clean from Torah and Chizuk..
Hence my question.

The purpose of a forum is to allow people to express their opinions. From time to time an individual finds something upsetting or inappropriate on a specific thread. When and if that happens, then by all means that individual is advised to leave the thread while the moderators decide if the specific posts should bedeleted for the various reasons that exist - be it explicit content, bullying, lashon hora, etc... That being said, it would be most reasonable that the host of a specific thread not be advised to leave his own thread. Mentshlechkeit, not SA policies, should dictate that all guests to another person's thread keep in line with the host's requests to a reasonable level. I feel comfortable writing this because i have had to put this into practice myself and have apologized for "bullying" on another person's thread. I have also chosen not to comment on certain threads where i came to realize that what i had to say would be found to be offensive or close to that. Many people here have agendas - well intentioned - but very specific to that person. We all must be careful in our sometimes overly excited effort to assist and advise others not to step over the "red line" of decency. Wishing everyone continued hatzlocha, and with apologies if my words here upset anyone.

hello everybody, im sorry to disappoint the Ribono shel olam ,myself , and anyone else that was rooting for me, but i just had a fall ,shucks,i know what i fell over and i know how to take care of it through the help of others who are specialists in a certain field,i personaly did not want to publicize my fall , due to 2 things
1. im always afraid that a fall could weaken others C"V ,and i dont want anyone to be affected by my stupid mistake , but i chatted with the peole on the ASK US ANYTHING box about this worry, (they really help me out alot of times and i reccommend that if anyone has a question in these areas , they should take advantage of that box.) and they said that honesty is the best policy,so thats the story .
2.it seems that i sound like a big talker about saying vidui, and Torah and chizuk is the way to go,and i really felt like hiding the fall ,so others should not get weakened and mainly to be merciful to my hurt ego,but i was thinking that i cant continue posting on these things with hiding my fall, and people should think hey, vidui and chizuk really work , look at ieeyc, hes going strong..,id feel like a hypocryte and of course gonav da`as habriyos, and a thought from Reb Yisroel Salanter ZTL once said , that we dont sell emes(i think he was refering to limud hamusar) with sheker.
one thing i would like to say is ,as i was falling ,you guys were in front of my eyes alot this time since due to the forum i was speaking to a lot of you,and i was thinking what will everyone say , ill be so embarresed,you know what, i ll keep it a secret thats all who has to tell...well after the fall i was thinking the same thing, but then BH, i think i made the right choice by disclosing.and being connected to you guys hopefuly will pull me through next time.,i hope to see you motzei Shabbos with 1 day under my count ,t.g.i.f. BH its friday , and BH Shabbos for me is always a good day to start a reset, and ive seen from past experience that the hardest days are the first 2,3, days, but after that it gets easier, so kol tuv. and sorry for such a long post.Gut Shabbos.
