Similar to alcoholism, sexual addiction has many different varieties. With sexual addiction, you can have any number of behaviors and/or combinations of behaviors. Some sex addicts have involved objects such as sex toys in their sexual acting out. Other sex addicts have issues about wearing particular clothes.

The need to have boundaries in this area is vital. It is important for sex to be relational with a monogamous partner and for the sex addict to move from conditioning himself from objectifying sex to relational sex. If these issues apply to you, an honest discussion with your support person or therapist may be helpful to clarify your boundaries around sexual objects.
