Because their natural attractions would theoretically lead them to procreate if acted upon, they are making a purposeful conscious choice for some other reason, it is not necessarily something that is 'hard wired' into their mental process.


Theoretically, maybe, maybe not. I'm not too sure on the inner desire of monks, but I'm sure if I wanted to, I could find plenty of cases with experienced monks who have trained themselves to rid themselves of their sexual urges. Theoretically, would these monks have a disorder?

A disorder is generally something that exists in and of itself or is due to outside causes, not usually something you would 'train' yourself to do or think, so not a disorder in that case. No fun though for sure.
