this must happen only in isalm because normally in society people interact and are quite responsible when acting upon their feelings, it is sad that you cannot exercise self-governance. as for islam pre-empting the possibility of attraction, then segregation is in itself half-baked best not have children at all cos one way or another you will still be attracted to someone, and what of lesbians what if they feel attracted how you gonna solve that one?, anyhows attraction is healthy and a part of life a person should embrace all things and live in the moment this is called living, this does not mean you act upon them when you love someone you can embrace that love and let it well-up in youre whole being, being imbued with such natural emotions is what makes us who we are, denying them is not abiding by the will of god, the purest one is one who shines like a radiant pearl whilst situated in the midst of filth, if you cannot do that, then you must live enslaved.

Thats why Allah swt has prescribed for us a thing called "marriage" so that we can act upon our desires/attractions in a lawful manner.
You dont need to look very far to see the curruption in society that intermixing with the oposite gender causes. How many marriages end up in divorce because of ppl having ellicit affairs. The spread of aids, children born out of wedlock etc etc. All these things start with "attraction" then lead to other things which then lead to major sinful acts. Islam has a cure for everything. It warns us about the harms of free mixing. Its cure starts with the root of where this illness arises from which is to lower the gaze and to avoid free mixing.
