I personally don't want to sin.
I can't say I don't sin, but I can honestly say I don't want to and I wish I didn't.
To answer your question, those who are filled with the Holy Spirit do not want to sin (we wish we didn't) and those not filled with the Holy Spirit still want to sin.
Why?
Romans 8:5-8
"Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds srt on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of the sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God."

Of course I DON'T WANNA SIN, n I DON'T LIKE SIN coz it's not good, n it's harmful for me and anybody else.
But sometimes when things are OUT OF CONTROL n u just can't handle it, that "sin" will plays its role to influence u to do bad things n just break the "rule of angel" (the "not-to-do" thing).
Probably b'coz we r only HUMAN, n have weaknesses like we afraid to be rejected by friends, got bad score, etc... so we try our best to achieve that, even with "sin".
I guess, it's OKAY when we do that "sin" just once or twice n just "A LITTLE SIN". Well, life is good, n we have to have some fun sometimes.
What SHOULD NOT is making "sin" AS A HABIT.

Whose to say what someone does is a sin to them? For example, A Christian would tell you that taking God's name in vane is a sin. However an Atheist doesn't believe in God and would not think it's a sin.

The Bible says all are born with a sin nature and that's what causes a person to 'want' to sin.
However, Chrsit came to break the power of sin in our lives so we can be set free from its compulsion.

Many sins are enjoyable. Most people, if they believe there is a God, do not think of the consequences of sin. They enjoy the moment and then say "I'm sorry" to God later.
