“Mate deprivation” (including psychologically, sociologically,
culturally induced) is unfortunately a misguided characteristic of
many religions, cultures and institutions. There's a strong
correlation between "mate deprivation" (in any form) and sexually
deviant behavior including rate of sexual crimes, across countries.
Taking a vow of celibacy, whether as a priest, monk or nun, etc is
actually psychologically-sexually unbalanced and unhealthy. Same
goes for same sex schools (no offence to LGBTs, but there's a
correlation with a higher incidence of students turning gay or
lesbo in same sex schools, due to "mate deprivation"), and to a
lesser extent, the military (which is by necessity, and the gender
imbalance ratio is less severe). But it's a personal choice, and we
respect free will, so long as the free will of others are not
infringed upon. But unfortunately, societal religious pressure does
blur this line rather a bit, for some countries and societies.
