As usual, the most important and only practical solution is missing from your list - have a reasoned talk with her about it. Express your thoughts and be open to hers - consider seeing a counselor with her. If you don't, this relationship will likely not end well.
Personally, I think she is making an unhealthy and unreasonable demand. It's normal for anyone to have instinctual desires, but the fact that you married her is your contractual promise to not act upon these desires. That is an incredible sign of commitment, but she wants you to quell 100% of your thoughts to the point of repressing them. That's unhealthy, in my opinion.
You should understand however that women tend to put greater emphasis on emotional cheating rather than physical cheating. It's not too much to ask that you don't ogle and stare at women in front of her - that is actually pretty rude and inconsiderate.
Am I the horniest guy in the world or is she overreacting?
