Moving the goalposts
I am up and down a lot at the moment.
I find myself looking at magazines (of the FHM variety) and enjoying the eye-candy. Because I'm allowed to go to the bikini line, I have been going.
Like I said, I'm not going to beat myself up for that. That does not constitute a breach of the rules.
However, I can feel it weakening my resolve: If X is ok, Y isn't much worse.
Add to that the occasional, unavoidable glimpse across the border: Oh look, she's got no top on. Well, that's not so bad either.
And before you know it, you're looking for a loophole wherever you can find it: Yeah, she's naked, but you can't see anything good...
and so the goalposts move.
To date, I have quickly looked away from so much as a naked breast. Any transgressions beyond the bikini line have been brief and inadvertant.
However, there have been some, so I am setting up an exclusion zone around the bikini line. I know it may sound extreme, but I have to set myself rules which will keep me off the hard stuff. And part of that means stepping back when the temptation gets stronger.

You're right, it does sound extreme.
I'm sick of your typical Xtian attitude.
FHM is true exploitation not only because of the pictures but also the heavily sexist articles.
You, my friend, are full of shit.
And you are on your own.
