Celibacy (8)

I believe the answer is:

chastity

'celibacy' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for chastity that I've seen before include "Sexual purity" , "Sexual abstinence" , "Medieval contraceptive device" , "Abstinence and purity" , "Virginity" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
