Like anyone who jumps into bed on the first date, you never know what the outcome will be. STDs, recrimination, feeling stupid, for women, unplanned pregnancy, (with the male not caring) are all byproducts of irrational lust. 

Despite what Fr. Reese may imply the bishops cannot just creep quietly from the bedroom, pull their pants up and leave. Knowing their partner as well as we do now, feeling taken advantage of may be the least of their concerns. STDs with all their side effects are the big concern. STDs along with being pregnant are not something you can just ignore and wish away. 

The bishops of the US for the most part experienced irrational lust with Trump and now they have to live with the results. Very old VD movies directed towards young men indicated “things” might fall off if you succumbed to lust. I would think that that might be the bishop’s worst result; things falling off and people ignoring their missives more than they do today.
