Dear Pastor,

I have been troubled for quite a while. The problem, my girlfriend, is a sexaholic. Sometimes she wants it five times for one night. This is very taxing on my body as I work very hard and cannot keep up. The other thing is, she barks like a dog when she climaxes. This scares me and I have become afraid of her. She is very pretty and I don't want to lose her.

Pastor, is there any pill she could take to curb her sex drive? What can be done about the barking? Please, help me.

Dear H. T.,

I don't know about the barking. I do know some women make lots of noise when they climax. A man told me that his woman has embarra**ed him on a number of occasions when she climaxed. In fact, at the apartment where they live, neighbours often knock on their door and beg them to take it easy because the noise is disturbing them. Some men try to push rags into the mouths of their women to prevent them from making loud noises.

Some men make lots of noise too when they are about to ejaculate. A lady once told me that she had to end the relationship with a man because of the tremendous noise he made. Some talk all sorts of nonsense, when they are in ecstasy, but I have never heard anyone barking like a dog. It must be scary, indeed.

I doubt very much that this woman can be described as a sexaholic. To some people, it is normal to have sex two, three or four times in one night. Indeed, some men brag that they have been able to satisfy their wives' needs by having sex with them two or three times per night.

Your woman is requiring much from you, but you are shocked and sorry for yourself because you have not been able to keep up. I suggest you discuss the matter with your woman and if you both agree she needs help, you may contact Sexaholic Anonymous at www.sa.org/ sexaholic.php.
