The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

"Celibacy" refers to the state of abstaining from marriage and sexual relationships, often for religious reasons.
Its direct opposite is "Matrimony", meaning the state of being married.
"Monkhood" and "Bachelorhood" both describe unmarried states similar to celibacy itself, and "Abstinence" is essentially a synonym of celibacy, so none of those three qualify as true opposites.
