Hobby or harm reduction?

For those unfamiliar, "harm reduction" means you limit the harm of an addition, rather than recover from it. Switching to methadone if you're an opioid addict is an example. I've never heard any stats, but it seems fairly common that some people can stay off booze by becoming heavy pot users. Can persistent sexual desire be considered an addiction? I say "persistent", since some women say they don't feel particularly horny when they're not in love. Many consider addiction to be something people fall into due to lack of self-discipline. But, seems more complicated to me, addicts seem to enjoy (at first) what they're addicted to more than average. So you can say that sex is something that a higher percentage of people greatly enjoy. I think, for me at least, going to strip clubs is harm reduction on the whole. I stopped going for several months, but started to slip into a deep depression. It's a better option than getting married just for sex. Or streetwalkers who likely are addicts (lacking in harm reduction) and/or are pimped. I think I´d be happier if I just lost interest in sex. I would miss the relationships/conversations I"ve had with a lot of my favs. It's the only situation where I have a fairly open conversation with people under 40. These days it's the only situation where I have a fairly open conversation with a non-white person. And strippers tend to have interesting lifestyles, "outlaw" to some extent.
