I've been LMAO reading some things around the web in the last day about sex addiction.

Sex Addiction? What a BFG! (Big Fucking Joke). Is this how we get out of trouble these days, by claiming that we are a victim of our own behavior? And is this how society restores its belief in people--by excusing their behavior on account of a mental health diagnosis? (which is not an actual diagnosis) Is it the act of having too much sex that makes it an addiction? Or wanting too much sex?

According to Medicine.net:
The term "sexual addiction" is used to describe the behavior of a person who has an unusually intense sex drive or an obsession with sex. Sex and the thought of sex tend to dominate the sex addict's thinking, making it difficult to work or engage in healthy personal relationships.
What is the behavior of a person with an usually intense sex drive? Are we assuming that they are having lots of sex? Because we wouldn't actually know unless they admitted it, or got caught.
