I guess it's ingrained in Western culture because of Jesus' words: "Matthew 5:28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart."

This is the best answer possible. You described the issue perfectly. Those who deny your answer are anti-human freedom in my opinion.
I think of sexting and pornography (extreme cases excluded) as being matters of pure fantasy. How can fantasy become a "sin"?

So, somehow that idea is programmed into people's heads in the West.
The concept of thoughts being "sin" makes no sense to me at all.

I agree with you.
I pose this question: would you feel the same if your spouse were chronically ill and totally unable to partake of the marriage bed?
