Some people, at times, are mislabeled as sex addicts; sex addiction has become a sort of a blanket reason for number of different types of deviant and, sometimes even normal, sexual behaviors.Even people who simply enjoy sex and do not exhibit any compulsive sexual behavior can be mislabeled as sex addicts.
It is important that there be a clear difference between people who simply enjoy sex and don’t have any anomalous sexual behavior issues, and the people who experience uncontrollable sexual impulses and are in fact sex addicts. Here are some important facts about sex addiction that will help outline such differences:
