re: How many of us have an actual sexual addiction?

Ok, so are you sure the sex is causing it or is one turning to sex in the wake of some other life problems.
I feel certain there are triggers, but the fact that people suffer from it's hold on their life is pretty well founded. This isn't news to you is it?

So wait, this so called doctor is telling people it's OK to screw around on your wife or person you're involved with in a committed relationship? How about the vow? What's he say about our normal propensity to breaking promises? Completely normal? What kind of degree does this quack have?
He's an MD off Essen lane. Psychiatrist. I only went once as I didn't want to cheat no mo.
But it's just a monkey wrench in this whole what's an addiction, what's normal, etc.
His point was there are levels of urges and that many marriages survive by one or both spouses getting that one little thing they don't get at home.
And that the side action serves a greater purpose of keeping marriage stable all that hubbub for the kids' sake and such.
I don't agree with him. Like I said, I went once.

What do You consider to be a long time ago?
Because about one hundred and fifty years ago we had legions of women getting their clits chopped off. They would be "hysterical", wanting an orgasm, and because of grandiose ignorance in the public, women fell in line. Married women were told no to have sex, because it was bad, m'kay?
This was here, in America.

As crazy as it sounds, I have a buddy with Love Addiction issues. It's not necessarily sex addiction but pretty close.

I hear ya. I guess it's the broken vow thing I take more issue with, that it's OK to hurt someone you're in a committed relationship with by cheating on them and breaking your vow to them as long as they aren't told and don't find out about it. That's a real fricked up thought process all by itself, with nothing to do with the actual sex part. The condoning and approval of it as a psychiatrist giving them an out.

Who are you arguing with this over, and why are you going here talking about mutilation when it's about addiction, not even sex or masturbation? Are you projecting here?

This is why. It screams ignorance.
Fact? Lulz.
Well-founded? Ok, like the removal of the clit to cure hysteria well-founded?

No, it's not like that at all. It's like the inability to completely reform a child molester.

Well, I watched that "Amateur slut gives exceptional deep throat in the 69 position" video that someone posted here several times. Does that make an addiction?
Posted on 6/12/14 at 11:37 am to Mike da Tigah
i dont think these people get it
it is easier to watch porn and get jollies than to pursue a woman
that, people, constitutes addiction

No. That does not constitute a sexual addiction. That doesn't even make sense. Your body is meant to have frequent sexual release.
How is masturbation different from sex? If one pursues and achieves sex daily, why is that different from masturbation? It's somehow not an addiction if I want to frick my wife five times a day and hold down a job and a normal family life but watch zero porn?
Is one who drinks fifteen glasses of water per day addicted to water? Water activates the same reward pathways in the brain that sex does.
Porn exists on the scale that it does because frequent sex is not available for many.

But the clinicians that diagnose sexual addiction don't see it that way. Not at all. You're a sex addict if you want to frick a ton in their world. I mean, it's not normal to want sex daily in their world.
I agree with you that human connectivity is essential. I don't agree that failing to achieve this and turning to porn constitutes addiction to sex.
