Sex Addiction Future

[tugon (imported)]

One of my deciding points for castration was based on my sex addiction future. I want to first say I have never been attracted to children. The occasional 17 or 18 year old boy but no children. I was always surprised when I would read of elderly grandfathers and uncles that would molest children at an age when you would think that the sex drive would be over. I looked forward to old age and the loss of drive before I found a way to be castrated. So I was surprised that these men were not only active but abusing children.

I began to look at myself and wonder if my addiction goes unchecked what will I be like in my 70's and 80's. As I have mentioned before when I have talked about addiction the drive to greater thrills and bigger risks was getting out of hand. I began to wonder how I would feed the addiction as I aged. Would I one day turn to children to fuel my desires. At the time I could not imagine it but in the same breath I could not imagine some of the other things I was doing.

I do not know how far I might have gone down that path. I do not know if those elder men were pedophiles all along and lost their self control. Castration was important to me because I did not want to find out where I would end up as a 70 year old addict.

Tugon,

In agreement with you. Natural age-diminishment of my libido wasn't coming soon enough for me, so I placed matters into Dr. Kimmel's capable hands.

Sexual misbehavior is particularly unbecoming in elderly folks. I take some comfort knowing I'll never be a "dirty old man." (Hopefully not a dirty old lady either.)

Tugon,

I don't think you would become a pedophile if you aren't already. However, you can still be a "dirty old man" without being a pedophile, and I understand the pain of being under the control of sexual urges. Even just spending your life and money on porn and prostitutes can be crippling emotionally.

Cheers!
