"....However, this forum is completely

We don't know each other by first name. We barely know who we are (from reading the stuff we've posted on this website). So yes, that qualifies you and I as "complete strangers".

"....I feel sorry for Weiner. I don't agree with his
politics, but I know what it is like to hold on to
a secret for years, stands as a coping mechanism,
and eventually ends up destroying you and those around
you.

I don't. This individual made a series of very poor choices. He needed to resign...and resign he did.

"....Sexual addiction takes no prisoners, and is an equal
opportunity destroyer.
"

Ditto for drugs, etc. But in order for one to crawl out from the abyss, they must be made aware (and subsequently hold themselves accountable for) their actions.

"....For that group, continue
to make fun of this, or me, don't admit it's a problem,
and if you yourself are an addict, continue as you
normally do.
"

Why would I? After all, I'm battling a similiar issue (someone dear to me is struggling with alchoholism.)

Briboy -- I assume you feel that the seriousness of sexual addiction is something that should be covered in health education courses in the public schools, and that treatment and counseling for it should be covered in public health services. Am I correct?
