| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Chastity |
 | | With chastity is often confounded modesty, though this latter is properly but a special circumstance of chastity or rather, we might say, its complement. | | | But this means the pre-eminence and mastery of the spirit, which in turn can only mean the castigation of the body. | | | Such a motive springs from the dignity of human nature, which, without this rational sway, is degraded to brutish levels. |

| | With chastity the person has head and heart united in pursuing the more noble values of a relationship with the Lord, the truth about the sacredness of sex, and the dignity of the human person. | | | The values of chastity must be "objectivized," internalized, such that the will is "constantly confronted by a value which fully explains the necessity for containing impulses aroused by carnal desire and sensuality. | | | A further value is that by opting for chastity, we will be living up to our own human dignity as persons created in the image and likeness of God. |

| | THE JOY OF CHASTITY |
| | Chastity changes this relationship because it is no longer based on the notion that sex is a really ordinary activity, or that one's body and soul are not special enough to keep for one's spouse. | | | Chastity is a means to greater peace of mind as it simplifies life immensely. | | | Virginity makes achieving chastity easier because there is nothing in your experience to remind you of sexual feelings. |

| | Light & Life Vol 47 No 6 - Chastity and The Spiritual Life: Some Strategies |
| | Chastity’s first goal, but not its exclusive one, is marriage which renders its acts human rather than merely biological, so that each partner can give oneself to the other. | | | Chastity, on the other hand lets us control our exposure to venereal pleasure reasonably, according to our state in life, and thus eliminate these possible negative effects. | | | Sexuality, in which man’s belonging to the bodily and biological world is expressed, becomes personal and truly human when it is integrated into the relationship of one person to another, in the complete and lifelong mutual gift of a man and a woman. |

| | virtue of chastity |
| | Conjugal chastity requires that spouses say ‘no’ not only to any barriers to life and love (e.g., contraception), but also to treating one another as objects of gratification. | | | You are not alone if chastity only brings to mind the idea of abstinence, prohibitions, and overall disdain of the body. | | | In this series, Bishop Loverde has attempted to show that the Church’s teachings — so often misunderstood as a litany of prohibitions — are grounded in a holistic understanding of the human person and because of this, they open the door to an authentic understanding of love and freedom. |

| | Catholic Culture : Document Library : Chastity and Modesty |
| | The breakdown in modesty is due fundamentally to a disregard of the virtue of chastity as a necessary virtue for all, in all the circumstances of life. | | | He says that, while chastity deals with the regulation of difficult things, powerful passions and strong desires for pleasure, modesty deals with the regulation of easy things, the remote and proximate occasions and conditions that lead to unholy desires. | | | However, it is most important to remember that the same law of chastity equally forbids the unchaste thought and the unchaste desire. |

| | The "need" to engage in sex is a fabrication on the part of those who, admittedly, can't say No to our greatest sensual pleasure, because they choose not to say No to its more resistible preliminaries and to lesser gratifications. | | | Stated negatively and very simply it is this: we can't be happy, unless we freely and lovingly give ourselves to others. | | | All appearances to the contrary notwithstanding, we men just might be able to harness our sex drive or, when not, at least to acknowledge the harm we do others no less than ourselves. |

| | Essential to the great project of developing chastity and purity is a turning away from a preoccupation with genital stimulation, so that one is left free to treat others as persons, not objects for self-gratification. | | | Through patient practice, cooperating with God’s grace, and with the help of the sacraments, young people can get their minds “out of the gutter” as it were. | | | The experience of chastity as a negative phenomenon must be replaced with an experience of chastity as an entirely positive phenomenon. |

| | SUMMA THEOLOGICA: Is chastity a general virtue? |
| | Wherefore the concupiscence of these pleasures stands in very great need of being chastised: and consequently chastity is applied antonomastically to such like concupiscences, even as fortitude is about those matters wherein we stand in the greatest need of strength of mind. | | | Further, "Chastity" takes its name from "chastisement" [Cf. | | | As stated above (1;142, 2), the concupiscence of that which gives pleasure is especially likened to a child, because the desire of pleasure is connatural to us, especially of pleasures of touch which are directed to the maintenance of nature. |

The virtue of care gives us the power to overcome the inconvenience and some-time hassle involved with helping others. | | | The lack of chastity causes blindness of mind, rashness, thoughtlessness, inconstancy, inordinate self-love, hatred of God, excessive love of this world, and abhorrence or despair of a future world.1 Most troubling is that an unchaste person loses the sense of right and wrong. |
