Julia Fox has a political impetus for abstaining from sex.

The Uncut Gems actor announced on TikTok last week that shes been celibate for over two years. She made the revelation in the comments of a video response to a controversial and now-defunct ad campaign by the dating app Bumble that declared: A vow of celibacy is not the answer.

Fox wrote: 2.5 years of celibacy and never been better tbh.

Appearing on Bravos Watch What Happens Live Monday, Fox joked that nothing good comes from having sex, including children, before noting that she decided to become celibate following the Supreme Courts 2022 rollback of abortion rights.

I think, with the overturning of Roe v. Wade and our rights being stripped away from us, this is a way that I can take back the control, she explained. It just sucks that it has to be in that way, but I just dont feel comfortable until things change.
