Sexuality in marriage and the role of chastity
Aleteia reports that chastity is a virtue practiced throughout life, including within marriage. While some view chastity only as abstinence before marriage, it also applies to married couples. For spouses, chastity involves sexual intimacy as an expression of love and the union of two becoming one flesh. The article notes that building marital love requires good communication, mutual understanding, and living sexuality according to specific principles.
