I have a big problem. I’m addicted to showers. I love the water. The water makes my body feel really good. I know it’s evil and wrong. Still I like it.

I’m a very dirty boy.

I especially like to take off all my clothes when I shower, alternating hot and cold water against my naked flesh.

I know it’s wrong, but still, at least once a day - sometimes two - I’m compelled. My addiction is so severe that showering is one of the first things I think about in the morning.

What is wrong with me?

This was my response to a friend of mine after he confessed his “sex addiction” to me.

I asked him to describe his symptoms exactly. He thought I was making fun of him. Hardly. I sincerely wanted to understand what he believed to be the overwhelming evidence of his addiction.

I am a 27 year old women that's been in a monogamous relationship for 10 years. I have 2 children and I have my tubes tied. For the past 5 years now I have had sexual urges that I can't explain. I have always enjoyed sex, for a women in today's society a little more then most. I have noticed 3 days before my Diva Week starts and about 1 week after I am as Horny as a 16 year old boy.

Raymond Tallis explains that when it comes to celebrity sex addiction the emperor has no clothes on:

"Apparently this extraordinarily handsome, fabulously rich, wonderfully talented man has been having sex with a number of beautiful women, only one of whom is his wife. This has caused shock and amazement to those who seem to be entirely unacquainted with the history of the world. From Solomon (300 wives and 700 concubines, according to the anonymous gossip columnist of 1 Kings xi, 1-3) to Warren Beatty (an estimated 12,775 lovers), we know that those who have the power to pull will usually pull."

Oh, TLC, how I love you. Amidst shitty shows like "Say Yes to the Dress" and "Toddlers and Tiaras", they sometimes have incredibly interesting medical shows/documentaries.

Tonight, there was one called "Strange Sex". It was a documentary chronicling "strange" sexual events of four different women.

One was a sex addict (she would come home from school, eat ice cream, and masturbate for hours until her parents came home), one had sexomnia (she would try to initiate sex after falling asleep, and would have no recollection of the events), one had PGAD, and one was allergic to her husband's semen.
