Personally, when I remind myself of this fact and keep it at the forefront of my mind, I just can't masturbate or abuse them. Every human being on this planet is nothing less than valuable beyond measure, and a vessel for the Holy Spirit. Not as even POTENTIAL sexual objects, but as sisters in Christ (even if they aren't Christian, because they are all made in the image of God) to love and care for just as Jesus did. Your success against lust through Christ begins when you change how you view women- and people- in general. But too many of them don't tell people where to go from there. I think the key to success- that a lot of these books may miss- is the fact that yeah, of course we know that looking at women in such a way is wrong.
