Sex Rehab
 ). But, seems that lots of people are now days. First Tiger, and now Jesse James. Used to be, if you played around - you were a cad. Lately, playboys full around,, get caught, and then enter rehab. What do you think?? True illnes? Depend on the person? Easy way to get back into your spouses good graces? Of course, gals are as guilty as guys. Just haven't heard about any female celebs in Sex rehab.  |

| I believe it's a true addiction. I'm sure it's used as an excuse all the time, but I know there are people out there that just can't help it and need to be locked up from society to control the addiction. I would have found it hard to understand/believe until I met someone who fits the bill as a true sex addict ...among other things. |
| sure - everything is an addiction. Everyone is a victim. There is no such thing as personal responsibility. Now don't we all just feel good for showing up?(unless you of course have a doctors note in which case you can stay home and feel good) |
Anything that hits the "happy" button in the brain hard enough can become addictive: food, sex, video games, religion, etc. I do believe its a "real" problem, but, doesn't absolve anybody of responsibility. I don't personally, think that drug addiction or alcoholism does either. What always gets me about addicts, is that they don't ever seem to see any "problem" in their behavior until they get caught...so its somehow their loved ones' (or boss', or the public's) responsibility to do something about it.  |

Good point Laurel! |
 Yeah Laurel! Said it better than I could. |
| Laurel is on point with this. I would like to add that all of these folks make a conscious decision to begin the behavior. I do believe it the progresses to a dependency/addiction. As a society we do not take responsibilty for our behaviors and decision. BTW: Bobby would not get a pass by checking himself into a posh clinic if he pulled a Tiger or Jessie in this house. |

Just makes thme someone you don't want to be married to!!Do I think these people are the typical people I'm talking about with a true sex addiction? No... They're just cocky guys who think they can have what they want. ...but these are no where near the other type who go to these places. The kind who can't hold a job b/c they can't pass a woman without sexual harassing them and always trying to get their coworkers in bed, who can't come home from a store until they've picked up a woman, who "almost" blatantly go out of their way to look at women in an inappropriate way like up their skirt or in their shirt [in a way only a little child would but to a mentally ill person... is normal]. I do think it's a mental disease, but none of these celebrities come close to the type I've seen and am talking about. Again, hard to understand unless you've seen people and actually know someone who has this mental problem. It's NOT a "shouldn't do it, so I'll stop" kind of fix for these people. I remember seeing on dateline kids that were as young as 8 that couldn't live outside of a shelter because they couldn't resist touching people inappropriately. These were kids who had parents like this, but DID NOT get sexually harassed/raped or anything as a younger kid. One particular very young child wasn't allowed to hug ANYONE because of what it could lead to in his thoughts. Instead he had to give a quick on the back to show affection to a loved one, but no close contact. |

But they are not "sex addicts"...BIG difference...I never heard of the term sex addict until all these celebs started to get caught! Whatever...hope their families can get over the pain and move on..without them! |
| In the case of Tiger and Jessie James they are over paid, egotistical a((hOles. Both married ABOVE their levels. I can not imagine finding out that my husband slept with 5-14 " ladys" and I use this loosely. WTH what about STD's, these " ladies " are not Nuns or virgins. |
| I like everything everybody has to say. So many differnet opinions. Addiction is a hard thing to see people you care about go through. My mother in law passed away a few years ago from alcholism, and my brother in law passed away in November from a heroine overdose. It's like a short circuit in there brain no matter how hard they try they just can't stop themselves. I'm happy that my husband doesn't have that short circuit. It's always in the back of my head that it can happen though. Years ago my mother in law was involved in fostering children. She had a large family of children that came to live with her. The boy if I remember correctly was around 10 maybe. He couldn't be left alone with other children because he would touch them in places. This because of what he had been through at some point in his life. Does it start that young? I can't answer that, but you really do have to feel for the families that go through these things. Lisa |
