Chastity is one of the key tenets of our faith. However, homosexuals and their allies—the social climbers who use this issue to help them scurry up the social ladder—are at war with chastity. Don’t be caught on the wrong side of this issue.
 
Define chastity.
Chastity is what a chastity belt could be used for. Why do you ask?
Jasoncran is right - the definition includes remaining sexually pure.
Chastity in marriage is fidelity to the marriage, honoring the vow of marriage -- to keep the commitment to ones' partner pure and free from adultery.

It strikes me as strange that 'modern' women oftentimes do what could be considered selective breeding; selecting their partners from their samplings of unchaste men, and then hoping against all hope that "their love" will somehow be able to purify their spouse to keep them faithful during the marriage.
 
Define chastity.

Chastity:

You don’t have sex until you get lawfully married, and then you have sex with no one but the one person you are lawfully married to. You remain faithful to that person for the rest of your life, unless that person is guilty of unchastity.

By “lawfully,†I mean, “By the law of the Lord.â€

[20] And he said, "What comes out of a man is what defiles a man.
[21] For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, fornication, theft, murder, adultery,
[22] coveting, wickedness, deceit, licentiousness, envy, slander, pride, foolishness.
[23] All these evil things come from within, and they defile a man." Mark 7:20-23 RSV

But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Matt 5:28 RSV

[32] But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery. Matt 5:32 RSV
