Well, that's certainly throwing fat on the fire for you make it sound like there is someone for everyone or that one just goes down to the dealership and picks one out.


What happens to this solution when they are told such a lie that there are girlfriends out there for them, they believe it, and then they find out that no one will have them?

Do you think a member of the Navy, or anyone else for that matter could not have a pornographic addiction?

Is a Marine someone with aggressive tendencies, who is antisocial outside of the Marines?
Not necessarily. I know many enlisted and veteran Marines who enjoy social activities.

Is that not how, traditionally, anyhow, we want them to be?
Again, not necessarily. Why would you?

Is it their fault, is it a sign to lock them up if the children of a service member exhibits such qualities of the parent?[Who is talking about locking anyone up? You are making up stories as we go along.

A and B. A: We can't just take the "symptoms" and apply them across the board to all situations. We have to consider the circumstances and surroundings as well.
Of course.{quote]

B: I can't say for the DSM-V but something I found with society using the DSM-IV is that they took the symptoms, found they fit a certain person in question, and proclaimed the person that affliction.....while missing a key component in almost every single one that makes it an affliction....."if it is hindering the person in question".
Psychologists have no solidarity of consensus on DSM-IV. I doubt society outside of the mental health field is using anything.

People can have an affliction but still be "okay" if it isn't causing them a problem.
As likely most of us do, but we are not all mass murderers.
