It’s kind of a difficult question to answer, I mean, the easy answer is no.  I think that if you have a high sex drive and you have a lot of desire to have sex and you enjoy having sex and you’re willing to use your time and resources to get laid; these are core components of your personality and your sexuality. These are two very big driving forces to make an individual an individual. I can’t see that your personality and your sexuality would shift so dramatically from 'I want to have sex with a different person every day and I like to have a lot of sex' to, ‘nah, never mind, no.’ And the best example I have of this is, I think, if you’re a forty year old homosexual man I don’t think that you can just wake up tomorrow and decide to be straight.  You can want to be straight, you can try to be straight, but if you’re gay you just are. And vise versa, no heterosexual man can think, ‘You know, it would be really cool if I were gay today.' You either like it or you don’t. You can’t alter it.  I think that there are some biological devices in that peoples sex drives and things diminish with time. 80 year olds don’t tend to be as horny as 16 year olds, for example.  Where that biological sway is I don’t know.

And then of course there is social pressure, maybe the social pressure is enough to get you not to have sex and then we go back to where we started in the beginning how you define a sex addict.  If the only kind of sex you’re willing to have involves your sister’s friends, maybe you’ll mature passed that and you’ll stop pissing off your sister.  But it gets so tricky.  As certain as I am sitting here there is someone somewhere whose desire to have sex is all encompassing and extraordinarily damaging; they have quit their job to have sex, etc.  But that’s incredibly rare and I don’t think we’ve ever seen it. The majority of people that claim that their addicted to sex are just people that have a lot of sex and are ashamed of it.  And they’re probably ashamed of it because society has told them to be. The amount of sex that you want is biologically based, there’s nothing you can do. If you don’t want to have sex nobody can make you want more and if you want to have a lot of it no body can make you want less.  And there are a hundred examples of this…Your favorite color…what’s your favorite color? 

Purple. 

I can’t convince you that it’s a different color.  There’s just nothing that I can do.  For what ever reason purple is your favorite color.  I can show you other colors, I can give you better examples, and I can tell you why this color is superior but at the end of the day you’re going to shrug and say, ‘You know, I like purple best.  I’m sorry. Purple is better.’  I think that a lot of people who think that they are addicted to sex are either one: using it as an excuse and outright lying, and that pretty much covers every single celebrity ever who ever said that they're a sex addict, or two: they’re ashamed of wanting and having a lot of sex.  And I think that goes right back to the societal bias against it.  I think if society was happy with people having a lot of sex there would be no such thing as a sex addict.  If having a lot of sex got you status in our society there would be no sex addicts then all the sudden we’d stigmatize the other thing, all of the people who didn’t like to have sex, all the people who had sex once a month, and they’d all be in groups trying to figure out how to have more sex.  ‘Oh I’m very ashamed, I only like to have sex once a month, I really don’t like to have sex at all.  Oh you poor thing, you’re broken.’ ….but those groups don’t exist. There are no support groups for the asexual cause no body cares.  In fact, we think that everybody should be asexual.  No body should desire or want sex ever.  And any movement above that line makes you bad and the farther you move passed that line the worse you are.  It’s only a disorder because society has deemed it one not because it actually is, it’s a human construct.  The desire to have sex is biological; the desire to judge is human.  For example, here, birth control is bad, I know, wonder of wonders right?  Abstinence is what’s taught in school, abstinence only education, don’t teach birth control, it’s fucked up but that’s the truth.  

I remember when I was very small the big deal was to have the sex class but then when I got to that age we didn’t have a sex class anymore and when I got in the sixth grade we had something about a bunch of venereal diseases but we never learned how to have sex.  They never taught you how to have sex they just told you what not to catch.  And now it’s completely don’t have sex at all. 

It was different for a while, but it’s been ever evolving because of all the protests. All these parents are getting together and saying we’re not teaching our kids about sex because we don’t want them to end up pregnant…The reason your kids are ending up pregnant is because they don’t know anything about sex.  If we taught sex the way it was proper, appropriate, and meant to be, not with the drama, not with all the extra religious stuff that we put in there about how you have to wait until marriage, just fact. This is how sex works.  This is how your body works. These are your birth control options, these are what you should do, these are the different orifices, and ways that you can stick stuff in them. I know that sounds funny but just stick to the facts.  But they don’t stick to the facts because they say this is how sex works and they immediately have the disclaimer of but don’t do it.  See they’re not sticking to the facts anymore, ‘don’t do it’ is an opinion.  They’re not teaching facts in school they are teaching opinions, abstinence only is an opinion.  It’s not a fact; there is no basis for this.  The age of which you become sexually active, there’s no basis. It’s ridiculous.  Some people will become sexually active at 14 and nothing is wrong with them, and some people will become sexually active at 26 and there is nothing wrong with them either.  You should teach the facts.  And we’re not teaching the facts.  We’re teaching the edited version of events to get the desired result and that is, ‘don’t have sex and if you do you’ll die.’ 

Because we want to control you.
