so, i've found that when i'm having trouble staying with a feeling (like sexual desire) it's because i'm subtly pathologizing it or rejecting it (true of sexual desire specifically, at points for me)

much easier to stay with the thing if you're accepting that it's going to happen

if there are conspicuous environmental factors making you horny during practice, and you can address those factors, that might be helpful

on the other hand, surrendering to sexual feelings can lead to some powerful jhanic states which are fun

lots of ways to address it
