Why, in our increasingly sexualised society, do people choose to become celibate? Some men and women may go through periods of being alone because they haven't met someone they are attracted to, but what of those who deliberately choose to eschew sex? When does celibacy move from simply being a personal choice, to a political act? Hayley Keane has started a global sponsored 'Celibathon' aimed at raising awareness of women's issues and generating money for charity. Jenni discusses the politics of celibacy with the journalist Hephzibah Anderson, who was celibate for a year, and to Dr Lesley Hall, the senior archivist at the Wellcome Library in London.
