I'm a christian and I'm 15. I recently went online to look at women's body parts. I didn't do for the same reason as porn. I just wanted to know how it all works. Even so, I was a little sexually excited but I suppressed it. Have I sinned?

It's normal to be turned on by pictures like that, after all it's the way you were made. Men are very visually stimulated. Curiosity is also normal, if you haven't gotten enough information at home than it's normal to try and find that info somewhere else. Isn't there someone you could talk to though. It's a lot less tempting or stimulating if you have someone else that's holding you accountable. Careful that you don't get sucked into porn. It's pretty addictive and it can ruin you're future relationships.

Trust me. Porn is over. I had a bad addiction for a little while and I told my step dad. He got me out and because of this I became a much more serious christian. I don't think I'll ever do porn again.

If you've already had an issue with porn than you've already seen body parts so why were you looking again? Obviously it wasn't a curiosity thing. If you already knew about them and were looking than yes I would say that you have sinned. You knew and looked anyway and lusted after it. That is sin. Could even find the verse for you if you need it. We all mess up though. Tell your step dad about it. You need to make sure someone knows you've had a slip up.

I would say definitely not.  It is that just you are inquisitve and that is good.  Of course as males, especially as teens, we get excited.  That is something that happens, thanks to our hormones, that God gave us.  Females experience a lot of the same things, maybe not as strongly, yet they still do.  But it is a lot of what you do with it.  By that I mean for example Doctors have to look and know about a variety of things about us.  Male doctors examine female patients and female doctors examine male patients and do you believe they don't get a little sexually excited at times?  They do.  But they control it and move on to the next patient.  But like Dr. Luke, they are trying to help their patients and so they have to learn how male and female body parts work, what is normal and what is abnormal, for example.  So again, no you have not sinned, it is just curiosity, coupled with normal male hormones, and that is good.

Thank you. Also, I saw all of the answers you gave about guys wearing panties. I really want to try it, but I don't really have a way of getting any unless I took some from my mom. I don't really want to go up to her and ask her for a pair of panties though. Does this mean I will have to wait until marriage?

There is no such thing as sin. The reproductive drive or sex drive in young men is strong because its what was best for the human species back when we were facing extinction to reproduce at an earlier age and want to do it often to produce as many offspring as possible.  But now humans are the top global predator and we are no longer threatened so what you felt is just a remnant of evolution that is present in just about everyone

If you don't like christians coming out with god answers to your questions than perhaps you shouldn't come out with evolution answers to theirs.
