as far as temptation goes...i think the key to it is having some level of self-knowledge. If being in a situation is too much, and will likely cause problems, especially if it's caused problems in the past...that's temptation.
but trying to avoid those positions cen get absurd. there's a pretty strong wing of the evangelic movement that considers even a kiss before marriage an invitation to sin, and a compromise of the purity of marriage. one of the reasons given is that it leads men on. i'm sorry, but it is not an irresistable temptation to kiss someone...we don't have little switches that destroy our capacity to reason at the first sign of sexuality.
