II. The Vocation to Chastity
2337 Chastity means the successful integration of sexuality
within the person and thus the inner unity of man in his bodily and spiritual
being. 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.
The virtue of chastity therefore involves the
integrity of the person and the integrality of the gift.
