This page is full of mis-information and requires a tidying. It has none of the appropriate templates or tags or whatever they are called. For example, if this is true it has no sources.
Abstinence from sexual activity results in a build-up of hormones, correlated with a feeling of well-being.
This article seems to contradict what is said in the abstinence article, never mind common sense and experience.

[edit] Article violates NPOV
"Abstinence may arise from an ascetic element, present in most religions, or from a subjective need for spiritual discipline. In its religious context, abstinence is meant to elevate the believer beyond the normal life of desire, to a chosen ideal, by following a path of renunciation."
The above paragraph is rife with slanted language, italicized. It should be replaced with more neutral language.

[edit] Pre marital abstinence
Why does the article state PMA to be forbidden only in Islam? It is forbidden in Christianity and Judaism too! Is there a reason it hasn't been added? --Cameron (t|p|c) 20:36, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
