About Celibacy

[tiremaker]

i have a married male friend who, i know is sexually active, even sometimes promiscuous claims that for a month he had been practicing celibacy and he was quite successful.

this goes for everybody online, both male and female, celibates or not. is it possible that on any given circumstances a sexually active individual could last a long time practicing celibacy? if yes, then what sort technique was appleid to achieve such impossible feat??? and more importrantly, is that practice healthy?

Hmm, I'm guessing you're friend's wife is okay with his celibacy/abstinence. Coz if not, kawawa naman siya. :O So, what did he say his reason was? Why abstain and miss the fun? :confused:

As for the question of possibility and technique...di ba celibacy naman ang pinaguusapan? "Celibacy" is the act of abstaining from sexual intercourse. Meaning, ok lang ang self-service. :D Can that be called a "technique"? IMO, it's not impossible (celibacy) but I don't think it's healthy for a married couple. Why for? :confused:

All I can say is, use it or lose it. Your choice. :rolleyes: :hihi:

tiremaker, do you mean your friend is celibate because he is away from his wife? yun kasi ang intindi ko.

it's a matter of determination and self-control. it's like havin a diet and stickin to your plan, tryin not to eat what you shouldn't eat. keepin yourself busy would keep a person thinkin bout sex. like you can use your energy in sports, computer stuff, new hobby perhaps.

but ey, when you say celibate, do you really have to refrain also from self-pleasure? what are those hands for anyway?

@dax, have you watched the 40 Days and 40 Nights movie ni Josh Hartnet? (good comedy) for him celibacy is depriving yourself of any sexual pleasures, even 'self-service.' for discussion purposes, lets assume that he is not doing any 'self-servicing' also. is that healthy?

i'm so intrigued with my friend. he has the same energy and vitality as before. well, i guess the wife doesn't mind being a celibate also.

maybe , i wanna try hehehehe

@ infinite trial
good point. anyway, he's living with his wife under the same roof. and his wife is not so bad, well she's attractive.

we all know it, eating pleasure is not comparable with sexual pleasure. you control your eating habits because you have a purpose of getting fit or keeping fit. however, this is the most intriguing, what do you get with practicing celibacy? its like, you don't know what lies beyond the tunnel.

i kept asking my friend and he just shrugs. he says i should try it to know....

[infinite_trial]

^^ i agree wit what Dax said. if they're livin in the same roof, why does he need to do that? maintindihan ko pa siguro if he's single and he just want to keep his mind of sex like what Josh did in the movie.

i could be stereotypin, but i think it's really difficult for a guy. as for me, wit or without it, that's okay. pero hindi panghabangbuhay!! aba sympre gusto ko rin naman magasawa noh.

@tiremaker, there has to be one good reason why your friend did that. And the after effects shall be most gratifying as well. I don't of any healths benefits from practising celibacy. It would be great if your friend will enlighten us.

Ang nakikita ko lang na magandang effect ay after nung 1 month dyeta, hataw naman minu-minuto, gyera hanggang umaga, hehehe. parang hybernation ang epek, or ramadan, something like that. sacrifice first, and then feast later.

40 days and 40 nights??? eh naman, 40 hours nga eh para na akong masisiraan ng bait eh...............wah ihihihi:D :p

Yes, that's what came in to my mind first. :D But the movie focuses on denying oneself anything and everything that gives sexual pleasure - not just in celibacy. Pero sige, kung hindi rin kasama ang self-servicing just like in the movie, then imposible na para sa akin yan hihihi.

Intrigued din ako dyan ah. But I won't try it hehe. :halo:

[tiremaker]

well my friends, i think we are all groping in the dark. we all have logical viewpoints. but we cannot hit the right answer.

i guess the answer lies in my interrogation and interview prowess. i have to hone the "Jay Leno" in me and collar that celibate friend of mine to spill out the beans. he has to give in....even if it cost me bottles of tequila or boxes of beer. wanna join???

i'll keep you folks updated....

There are ,obviously , many different reasons for living in celibacy/chastity .. There are as many prejudices about it.. motivations probably would be to give up sex to be able to serve God in a better way..like priest, monks and nuns ,of course . people who stay virgin until marriage~ because you want to stay a virgin yourself, for health reasons... or maybe you're imprisoned... there's a lot more reasons actually... it could be healthy for some , meditation in some process ..

I think achieving such impossible feat (your word) would depend on the person itself... for me if you'll just keep reminding yourself of your goals , it could probably work...

I'm not against it, I could celibate but I would never be able to live through the chastity.. :)

for those who wanna practice celibacy, madali lang yan... apply for a work here in KSA, have a working contract for like 4 to 6 years... i'm sure matutulungan nito ang pagpapractice nyo, just like me... i've been practicing for 4 years now :D

well, celibacy is like reaching a goal or something like a great responsibility... for me, as a single, I always wanted to make love with someone I really love and not just go out there and pay for it. Kung pepede nga lang, I'll wait until I get married. But what the heck, if I found the right one, I'll quit practicing as soon as possible. Kaya naman next year, i'm planning to quit na. :D :D :D

It is possible why not to abstain from any sexual pleasure even masturbation itself.I have conquered my instinct and urges too many times and for about 3 months when I was a bachelor but then I fall from time to time.I guess it is not good for the health.Sex is like laughing.It stretches your muscles and revigorate your blood flows.It is also a stress reliever in some way.....well, let the experts tell.:D
