First of all...yecccccch to the list.

Violence and feces, blood and debasement really have no place in my sexual world. Thank God. I freak out when I pull my dong out of her ass and it looks like a chili dog.
Sexual addiction: I don't buy it, nor do about half the "experts." Problem is, with other addictions, it's easy to identify the reinforcer (i.e. that which drives an increase in the behavior). With a given drug, for instance you can identify the receptor site in the brain which the drug stimulates. With some drugs, withdrawal (abstinence syndrome) drives the addiction as much as the pleasure derived from using the drug.
With sex it's wa-a-a-ay more complex. What's the reinforcer? Orgasm? Power? Psychological intimacy? Tough to define. "Sex addiction" has joined many other pop psychologies...IMHO it's bullshit. Your opinion may vary.
Now to Pacifica's question: This about me, and only about mongering (not my "real world" sex life). For me, the learning curve has been steep. As pacifica points out, the first time you're in C.R. it's sort of "wow...I can do any of these girls and want to do most of them..." After that, a monger starts to define what he needs/wants at the moment. I went from:
1st trip: I'm intimidated.
2nd trip: I'm too new...but I want to ride all the rides I looked outside the Gulch with excellent results, but wasn't particularly interested in body type or beauty...just looked for some friendly attitudes and sweet personalities. I was still very nervous and new.
3rd trip: I have no taste in women. But at least I did a bunch of them, was sexually successful with all, satisfied by most. Spent too much money.
4th trip: Wonder if I can find a chick who's into toy play and bondage? Okay, if not...just a good BBBJ. I want smaller women, more athletic bodies.
5th trip: ???? No idea until I get there. Can't wait. I've gone from being overwhelmed to being more confident. Maybe I'll try to court a non-pro? Na-a-ah. I'm too lazy. Still...
