I understand that human sexuality has a wide, vast range of "normal" but only being able to have sex with one person despite feeling sexual needy urges is... a problem. Like, he's TRIED to have sex with other people and not been able to. It's not like he's really choosing to be celibate/monogamous because Twu Wuv.
I was really glad that Lynch presented Sabetha as a woman who's had sex with people other than The Main Character And Designated Love Interest, and she's not portrayed as bad for doing so. Locke's angry/jealous reaction is one he recognizes as uncalled for and unfair.
