I don’t think catholics are sexually repressed. Of course, that may appear to be the case. After all, the church does teach chastity. And, now, it isn’t catching. Being a convert, I find that the church has a healthy view of sexuality. Basically, it’s for married couples only. It is for procreation, not plain pleasure. Our society (and others) are far too obsessed with sex. That’s the real problem.
