I don't think that is in any way equivalent. Lock yourself in a room and you are completely unable to do anything with your life. Abstain from sex and you can carry on and do everything you ever wanted
except that one thing, and even that exception is temporary - remember, we're talking about abstinence here, not outright celibacy.
Sex is great, but it is not the be-all-and-end-all of life. Take it from someone who knows - my first time was wedding night, aged 26. No regrets whatsoever.
