Sex and Teachers

In Religion class today, we were discussing the Bhagavad Gita (remember this from Sejarah at home?) I do. But somehow I don't remember us learning what it was about. Anyway, we were talking about the Eight Teaching in the Bhagavad Gita, and the prof asked "What do you think it means when Krishna says controlling the body gates?"
A girl answered, "Not have sex? Celibacy?" 
"Yeah, that could be one meaning. Having sex does involves certain kinds of gates."
*Class laughs*
"I remember once upon a time for me, even when I wasn't having sex of any kind, I would still be thinking about it constantly. So obviously it would be difficult for a person of any kind to meditate and get close to God while thinking about sex especially since they have had sex before."
*People in class look at each other trying not to laugh*


Umm, definitely not information you would share with a class.
