I thought I’d invented the term, but here’s “countereroticism” in the blurb for a book titled “The Sex Lives Of Saints”:

Has a repressive morality been the primary contribution of Christianity to the history of sexuality? The ascetic concerns that pervade ancient Christian texts would seem to support such a common assumption. Focusing on hagiographical literature, Virginia Burrus pursues a fresh path of interpretation, arguing that the early accounts of the lives of saints are not antierotic but rather convey a sublimely transgressive “countereroticism” that resists the marital, procreative ethic of sexuality found in other strands of Christian tradition.

How awesome does this book sound?
