As I battle taava, it kinda paints a very bad picture of woman and looks. It makes me detest it and leads me vulnerable to.condescending on woman. Tho Yosef Hatzadik was the pinnacle of both beauty and battling taava, so they cant be a steira. How might I avoid this problem without succumbing to it?
all best, may Hashem grant you all success.

Imagine if you live near Victoria Falls in Africa, would you be interested in looking at a two inch high waterfall? It would not be hard to look away from that. The physical beauty of woman is just a two inch waterfall compared to the beauty of the soul. Why would we want to focus on this insignificant thing and miss the true beauty instead? Perhaps this is what Lust addiction is after all, just a fantasy that some insignificant thing will make us happy, when of course it can't, because we are missing the true beauty and the things that will really make us happy.
