Hello, I think there is a co-variable that is being over looked. that became apparent when they compared women with children and nuns. THere was a study done many years back (actually many) on stress and its affect on aging. they looked at the length telomeres of cells of women with children and women with no children and various lifestyles. It showed that women with children had shorter telomere lengths. this was over a period of 5 years. So those of you who are not familiar with telomeres - in short every time a cell divides the telomere length gets shorter. and from this study stress greatly reduces the length thus not as many replications and therefore faster aging.. I would suspect that same thing is happening in this "Celibacy and longevity case" Cheers Advertising link removed
