Results of Celibacy

Catholic priests have to follow celibacy once they decided to enter priesthood, but is it good for them. Most religions allow their preachers or pastors to be married like ordinary men. One of the results of celibacy I think is that some priests hid their relationship or families in instances that they wasn't able to commit perfectly with celibacy. What else do you think?
