What Happens When Someone Takes A Vow Of Chastity Or Celibacy?

What it means to be celibate in 2016? What can people who aren't celibate can learn about their own sex lives from those who are? Co-hosts Noah Michelson and Carina Kolodny interview a woman who recently became celibate to heal after a divorce, a woman who became celibate to help her with self-control and become closer to God and author Eve Tushnet, who wrote “Gay and Catholic: Accepting My Sexuality, Finding Community, Living my Faith” and “Amends: A Novel.” She became Catholic in college and, in doing so, began a life of celibacy.
