Sexual Anorexia -- Sexual Addiction's Lesser Known Cousin

Sexual anorexics are the opposite of what Tiger Woods and Jesse James are, open manwhores.

So, researchers have apparently identified a new type of sexual dysfunction that runs in the opposite end of the spectrum from the likes of what Tiger Woods and Jesse James purportedly have (so-called "sexual addictions") and are saying that in addition to those people who are insanely addicted to sex, there also exist people who obssessively avoid sex.  Those who suffer from what has been termed "sexual anorexia" tend to be caught in an obsessive state in which the physical, mental and emotional task of avoiding sex dominates their lives.  To read more about this affliction, click here.

What are your thoughts on this latest development?  Do you believe sexual addiction and sexual anorexia are real, actual afflictions?  Or, is it just a matter of people having no control (or in the case of sexual anorexia, too much control) over their sexual urges?  Can a medical label really be slapped on someone for wanting sex too often or too little?
