My new novel Hourglass - about biohacking, seduction, and philosophy - bears the subtitle "Not For Sex Addicts." Did I subtitle it so just to be provocative and elicit your curiosity, click, and purchase?
Well, I wouldn’t be a good seducer if I weren’t somewhat guilty of that!
But the truth is, I genuinely don’t want men with zero sexual self-control reading it (for reasons obvious to you if you read it).
The subtitle is a selective invitation. A challenge to those with some degree of sexual sovereignty - a mirror held up to their own agency: their capacity to bend the trajectory of their lives through sharper, smarter sexual choices.
The subtitle is my subtle shot across the bow of Sexaholics Anonymous and the broader psychological sphere, which, I contend, disempowers many by giving them the label “Sex Addict.”
