Research has shown that religiosity and moral disapproval have a strong influence on perceived sex/porn addiction. For example, Grubbs and colleagues [1] [2] found that religiosity and moral disapproval were strong predictors of perceived pornography addiction, even when actual pornography use was controlled.

Other researchers have reported similar findings [3] [4] [5] . Regarding pornography use, Thomas [6] [7] applied archival analysis to trace the creation and deployment of the addiction framework among evangelical Christians. Other scholars have reported that the concept of sex addiction emerged in the 1980s as a socially conservative response to cultural anxieties, and has gained acceptance through its reliance on medicalization and popular culture visibility [8] [9].

The sex/porn addiction model assumes that sexual behaviors as a coping mechanism are an indicator of addiction, but it does not consider the possibility that sex may be a positive coping mechanism. However, scholars have realized that various sexual and erotic activities may function as legitimate leisure experience, which can be salubrious, rather than necessarily maladaptive, ways of coping (i.e., [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15]). Indeed, sexuality scholars have recognized the need to expand professional understanding of sexuality and the importance of diversity and pleasure as pertaining to individual health

(i.e., [16] [17][18][19]).
