I think you're wrong.It's the outcome of human obsessions which prove if they're positive, neutral or negative, right?
It's likely that obsessional behaviours AND superstitious beliefs are biological imperatives. I assume you're familiar with studies of superstitious behaviour in animals; false positives being more transferable than false negatives...
Someone who eats at the expense of their health and social function is described as having an eating disorder, so why not apply that logic to other biological imperatives?
I'll grant you that not everyone who claims to have a sex addiction definitely has one, but you're wrong to assert that because something is a biological imperative one cannot become addicted to it.
