In A Wild Constraint: The Case for Chastity, Taylor addresses the
provocative subject of celibacy. Too often considered an exclusively
religious option, celibacy has been reclaimed by some feminists and
sociologists over the last 20 years as a radical alternative in
secular society to the liberal sexual lifestyle. What, after all, is
sexual liberation when so often the outcome is pain and social chaos?
In the context of promiscuity, sexual abuse and confusion, celibacy
can herald a different sexual freedom. Jenny Taylor draws on personal
experience and interviews with men and women of all ages to
demonstrate the impact of the sexual revolution and to make a case for
celibacy. She argues that celibacy is a viable alternative that
deserves to be taken seriously and challenges the church to speak out
for sexual abstinence with confidence and certainty.
