“Woods has created a dialogue among couples, giving them a definition for a serious problem that’s plagued relationships,” Canning says. “Women are finally realizing, ‘I’m not the only one.’”
Until recently, sex addiction seemed like an affliction exclusive to show-biz types. In 2000, self-described sex addict/new husband Michael Douglas reportedly signed a prenup that included a $5 million “straying fee” should he bed someone other than wife Catherine Zeta-Jones. R&B singer Eric Benet attended sex rehab in 2003 after admittedly cheating on then-wife Halle Berry. David Duchovny, who also plays a sex addict on TV’s Californication, sought treatment—and saved his 13-year marriage to actress Tea Leoni — by going to Meadows in 2008. And last year, on the heels of Woods’ confession, ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips was caught cavorting with his 22 year-old production assistant, cried sex addiction and headed to rehab.

Women are sex addicts too.
Addiction of any kind is a web that damn near anyone can fall into.
Especially when the immediate sphere of endeavors, work, career and other projects are well conquered and squared away, there opens a search or perhaps a need for new adventure - a new horizon. It can be quite innocent.If one were single, it may be any a new love - or being open for dating. Maybe some other, entirely different venue, like race car driving. - Something new, something adventuresome. A new romance.
And new candy, whether sex, drugs and rock n roll; or race car driving, or bungy jumping - or stamp collecting tends to open a door.
A new path asks for more. - It's only later that most of us learn just where that path leads. We have to be shown.
No one can tell you "No, no - " - You have to stick your face in it.
That'll teach ya. -
