I don't think this song is necessisarily about sex. The indications that sex is the main theme of this song is strong, but I think it is mainly about love gone wrong but still miserably alive. The opening line, "Hey, been trying to meet you" is like a plea to reconcile with this person, even though it might be like trying to be with someone who has drastically changed, almost like meeting a new person. The whores aren't literally whores, they're more like ideas and preconceptions about love and relationships the speaker of the song has given into. Whores can be beautiful and alluring, but illogical and eventually devoid of truth, and they are the ideals the person in the song has clung to, and that person is realizing that it is damaging the realationship he is in. Despite how illogical and harmful it is to be together with this person, he still wants to cultivate his adamant view of love with his lover; they are chained because they are avoiding the cold truth about their love.
The second part is more about the sexual part of their realationship; the "whores like a choir", their ideals keeping their futile love alive. The whole part about Mary might be a religious reference. The lovers in the song may view thier love as this immaculate and beautiful thing, like the way Jesus was made. But the baby is aborted, and their love is something that never will be complete nor immaculate, there isn't any use for it to be alive. So the lovers are held together forever, they still love each other even though they'll never be together again.
