promisechild: that no 1 question is a question I would never forget in my it was once asked in unilag the answer is A not d( celibacy) means abstinence from sex all the other options are invalid moreover there is nothing like heterosexual

While to die in bed is to die of natural cause so the answer is to die while sleeping.

Do ur findings and remark me I don't fail english.

Celibacy means not marrying or having sex in other word abstinence, so the opposite of celibacy is married, but lesbianism means being sexually active with people of the same sex(females) while heterosexuality means sexually attracted to people of the opposite sex, so the opposite of lesbianism is heterosexuality without doubt.
