This bold work asks whether traditional Christian sexual morality,
with its emphasis on sexual abstinence outside of heterosexual
marriage, is harmful. Appealing to sociological studies,
anthropological theories, and contemporary theological ethics,
Hartwig develops a model of sexual virtue around the concept of a
poetics of intimacy and applies this model to particular challenges
faced by the divorced, married couples, gay men and lesbians,
single adults, and people with mental and developmental
disabilities. He concludes that mandated long-term and lifelong
sexual abstinence for those outside heterosexual marriage is not
only harmful, but compromises many features of Christian morality.
