Can it be done?

I want to look at you and see a human being first. I don't want to look at you in lust. Why should this be so hard. Why does de-sexualizing make one more human to me? oh wrong choice of words. I want to drink in your beauty, I want to talk to you without any ulterior motive of flirt or maybe or should I? or what have you. I want to embrace your man self, your boy self as friend, no sex, no disregard for that healthy and creative power but to see you without that baggage. What if we should meet without our genitals? Let's put them in a pile over by the door and just sit for awhile and talk. Let's look and cuddle and play in a freedom uncluttered by eros. Is this even doable? is it possible to appreciate a beautiful sexy man without hormones taking over? I want this. I want to get to know the other half of the population and not let sex ruin it.
