The aversion to lust has been a manifestation of the believe that the mind and body are two seperate entities. Valuing the mind over the body led to a religious doctine that devalued anything more strongly connected to the body and less of the mind. Since the mind is more ethereal, and god-like apparently... in any event, we're moving away from this duality towards a better representation of humanity where the mind and body are not seperated, but very closely connected. And away from shame, guilt, and in general a schizophrenic view of the self.
