The answer

This act is dangerous and must be treated and diligently eliminated. One should avoid mixing with and touching anything that incites lust. Scholars differed on whether touching males with lust invalidates ablution (wudu'). Some are of the view that it invalidates ablution, similar to touching women with lust, while others are of the view that it does not. The first opinion is more evident. However, if you perform ablution as a precaution and to avoid disagreement, that would be good. It is recommended to perform ablution when intense lust is aroused, just as it is recommended when one is angry, for both are from Satan and ablution extinguishes their heat.
