6 Historic Figures Who Were Celibate

Some weren’t interested, some didn’t know what they were missing, and others just gave up sex for one reason or another. These six were mostly creative types who were obsessed with their work ahead of… everything else. Pictured is Nikola Tesla, who had no trouble attracting women. Link -via Digg

    Thanks for the link, I didn’t expect this to be as popular as it has become.

    I’ve tried to not make romance sexy to myself but i can’t stop the feeling is so addicting and so is looking at the pictures they give me explosions in my mind and pants

    How did they stop from thinking and wanting to do this?

    I read if you explode too much, aka ejaculate that you will grow weak and this is true as i have been since age 12 and i am weak

    My long time boyfriend is celibate, but he doesn’t call it that. He just doesn’t refer to sex at all. I keep telling myself that I don’t mind. Now I have hope that he will come into greatness because he shuns sex. It’s kind of a long wait though. Does that admission make me a shallow person? Probably.

    Celibacy is just nobody willing to admit they were gay.

    (Read this in a stoned mental voice) Tesla wasn’t celibate it all, just, like a it was a conspiracy, yeah thats right. Tha MAN put like something in his food so he couldn’t take over the world with his progeny, progeny, progeny - what a funny wordz. I said wordz, did you hear me, wordz. Hey pass that……

    Tesla had OCD, was fastidious about hygiene, and had a fear of hair. I would imagine that that combination would make sex a pretty nasty chore!

    He also hated fat people. Tesla put a “no fat chicks” sticker on all of his inventions. Incidentally, he also invented the no fat chicks sticker.
