While in my "Western Religion" class we were talking about celibacy being the reason why so many catholic priest are moloesters. Then I mentioned that I think celibacy is harder for a man than a woman(which wasn't a smart thing to say.)

Do you think celibacy is harder for a man or for a woman?
 
depends on the man, and depends on the woman.

blank generalizations like that'll get you in trouble.
 
True about not generalizing. Though i agree with you. priests are hilarious

Neither. It's hard for both, and yet at the same time it's also very easy.

While you are trying to push back thoughts of sexual desire; not getting laid is not much of an accomplishment either.
 
Having never been a man, I wouldn't know. And assuming that you have never been a woman, how could you know?

I know both girls and boys who take "chastity vows", and they both say it's hard to keep them; especially if they date.

It's not something that's harder for one or the other. My roomate didn't start dating until recently and now has sex on a regular basis, now he has a whole different perspective on things. Thinks it's foolish to not have sex within a relationship or before marriage.

So it's all a matter of situation and perspective. It's only hard if your life makes it hard. Someone who takes chastity vows but still wishing to date around is going to have a lot harder time than a girl I knew who used to shun every form of male attention under the sun. She's not having a hard time remaining celebate, guys just don't like her.

Similarly your attractiveness, your ability to deal with people, the places you hang out, what you do for fun, your parents are going to have an affect on this as well.

It's pretty easy to remain celebate, just lock yourself up in a room all day...you'll be celebate for a while. But at the same time, if you embrace and experience the non-celebate world around you on a day to day, up close and personal way that is going to affect you.
 
it's all about your point of view.

I know that I start to go crazy if i haven't had sex in atleast a week, but i know some people who have never had it and don't care, and some people who do it in moderation.


it defenetly depends on what kind of woman it is.

Why do you think there's so many ass rapes in prison? Men can't go without some form of sex.
