What a perfect example of how sexuality is suppressed, controlled

You reminded me of a post I saw in r/catholicism. OP wanted to stop masturbating, but wasn't able to overcome the urge and felt very bad about it, knowing it was wrong, and was asking advice. All the comments were in the line of "Just trust and submit to Jesus and he'll help you".

WTF... I felt bad for OP and other people in a situation like that.
