The Nun that could not do without NONE.

I'm sorry, but complete sexual repression is not the human condition. At least my great aunt and an uncle and my father in law left the order without taking it to the public. My aunt was a nun for 26 years before quitting and moving in with her female lover.

I think the catholic church and the public would be far better served if the clergy could marry. You know, the way it used to be. Too bad they are more consumed by the equity problems such creates. That's the real reason the church abolished the right for clergy to marry in the first place. I'd love to see statistics per capita on religious workers allowed to marry versus those who cannot regarding sexual abuse.
