Involuntary Celibacy

Involuntary Celibacy From: The Decision to Remain in an Involuntarily Celibate Relationship Journal of Marriage and Family Volume 70, Issue 2, pages 519–535, May 2008 Based upon qualitative data from a sample of 77 married or long-term cohabiting heterosexuals self-defining as involuntarily celibate, we used social exchange theory to develop a model for understanding the causes and consequences of sexual inactivity in committed relationships. Although reported consequences of involuntary celibacy tended to be negative, most partnered celibates were in stable relationships and reluctant to leave. As a result, they developed diverse coping strategies, and most were still hopeful of resuming sexual activity. Based upon these findings, the paper concludes with a discussion of practical implications and directions for further research. *** A very good read if you like academic articles, and especially if you have found yourself celibate in your marriage. |
