So whats the cure for it?

anyways, this movie, I think it was blades of glory or fury, can't quite remember, well anyways, its the movie about two males participating in a male to male partners in figure skating. Will Ferrel was a sex addict and groups exists for them. So I guess it is true.

[zeruel]

Yeah it is I guess...

I remember reading the book "Kiss The Girls" by James Patterson... It is about sexual obsession or addiction wherein this called Casanova abducts gorgeous girls and put them on a cellar underground and make them his sexual slaves...

it was also filmed back in 1997... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119468/

Yes, unfortunately. I've dated some sex addicts (actually, more than I care to remember). Those were some of my emptiest experiences, both emotionally and physically. Sexual junk food. Twinkies for the nads. You get the idea. But I still feel sorry for them regardless. What a horrible thing to have to live with. Oiy.

I don't think so. Why?

I say there are some people who want it more than others. Simple.

For example. Let's say that there's someone who eats only rice and that's all they eat -right? Then, you may have someone who eats a lot of spices, fiery foods, alcohol, chocolate, sweets and stuff like that -right?

Well we all know what can happen if we eat or drink a certain type of food/drink? It can get us horny. All of the sudden we have all this sexual energy, then it's time to find someone to make whoopee with -right?

Don't get me wrong I believe sex is a natural human emotion. Just some may find the call to it more uncontrollable than others do.

Doesn't that define addiction?

I wouldn't go so far as to call it addiction. I just feel that some have a higher libido than others. Because who has 'complete' and 'perfect' control over their sexual appetite? Who is to say that they are that perfect? I feel we are all humans and our levels of self control development will be different. So I don't think I should look down on another, when I possess these same desires within myself. Now if I could perfectly control the natural desire to mate, then maybe I could look down on everyone -and say "nay you sex addicts!"
