Hmmmm.... interesting discussion. Personally I feel that that verse is a this-shall-happen-and-have-such-and-such-consequences thing. If you desire someone, you'll be inclined to put up with some things that maybe you wouldn't if you didn't have that desire. So to me, this verse answers the question 'why do women put up with so much lousy behavior from men?' ... And yeah, I know that's an over-generalisation, but it seems to cover some things well enough...
