Lust and any temptation I learned is caused by the Limbic system, which releases dopamine, which causes arousal and temptation, but no reward on its own.
It is held at bay by the Prefrontal Cortex, which provides reasoning and forward-thinking. The Limbic system, which includes the amygdala is where emotions come from. It provides a fight or flight response, which can be triggered quite easily depending on how large the Limbic system has grown. To grow spiritually one needs to work on their prefrontal cortex. The Limbic system has no clue about consequences. It is primitive compared to the prefrontal cortex.
