          I'm absolutely sympathetic to people without partners; i've had relatively few in my life and gone long periods being very lonely, myself.

          There are absolutely no physical health problems associated with being chaste, although lots of people don't love it, of course.

          Also if it's just about sexual gratification, well, abled folks have the ability to masturbate. It's obviously NOT just about that.
