Please, hide the children, and steel yourself: style icon Tim Gunn confessed on national television to being a complete freak about sex. The man actually admitted to having been celibate for nearly three decades! No, really, he did. And get this: he claims that he’s not maladjusted, either. Reports the L.A. Times:

If you watch the above video until the end, you’ll see Gunn speaking in halting sentences, holding back emotion, as he explains that his decision to remain celibate by choice followed a difficult breakup and is partly “psychological.” He cites health, and fear of sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS.

“Do I feel like less of a person for it? No!” he said. “I am a perfectly happy, fulfilled individual.” He said he started his self-imposed celibacy as AIDS began ravaging the gay community, and that he and many other people simply retreated from that danger.

He suggested that he has no regrets, adding as the audience applauded: “I am happy to be healthy and alive, quite frankly.”

Well, Tim Gunn, clearly we have a new champion for History’s Greatest Monster. Everybody knows that you cannot be happy or fulfilled without having sex, even if the kind of sex you are inclined to have could make you very sick, and even kill you. They ought to find a home for weirdos who have sworn off sex, where they can sequester themselves and think about other things in their sad, meaningless lives.

Oh, wait.
