Desire can never be eliminated. Rather, desire can only be repressed or sublimated. If desire is repressed, the outcome is hysteria and neurosis. If desire is sublimated, it is the outcome of education and sexual freedom. If the societal aim and goal becomes one of stamping out desire through prohibition as is the case in America, not much good comes out of it. The aim and goal should instead be the sublimation of desire through education and sexual freedom as is the case in Holland, for instance.
