So all my priest friends are gay?
Celibacy has its roots in medieval thinking and has no origin in early Christianity.
St. Paul would disagree with you:
"To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is well for them to remain single as I am. But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry." (1 Cor 7:8-9).
Our Lord would also disagree with you:
"Not all can accept this word, but only those to whom it is granted. Some are incapable of marriage because they were born so; some, because they were made so by others; some, because they have renounced marriage for the sake of the kingdom of God. Whoever can accept this ought to accept it" (Matt. 19:1112).
Again fine with me but why is it an absolute requirement. Where did Christ require it and make it an obligation. He never did. Thats why requiring it is wrong.
