I see no problem with speaking of our likes and dislikes, fettishes, and reasons why. I think this is all part of exploring a healthy sexuality. According to Patrick Carnes, the acknowleedged leader in the treatment of compulsive sexual behavior, there are distinct charateristics of "sex addicts". They have a pattern of out of control sexual behavior. THey continue in that pattern even thogh it is destroying their lives. They will often persue dangerous or high risk sex. They are sexual even when they do not intend to be. They have erious life consequences because of their sexual behavior. Their sexual behavior affects their work,hobbies, friends and family. They use sex to control their moods and manage stress and anxiety. They obsess about sexual things so much that it interferes with normal living. They may have periods when they extinguish all sexual behavior and become sex adversive. Brenda Mothers tell your children
Be quick you must be strong
Life is full of wonder
Love is never wrong
Remember how they taught you
How much of it was fear
Refuse to hand it down
The legacy stops here
“Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.”
-Winston Churchill |
