  1. :-) you don't have to read anything into it. Some people are exhibitionists. However, when one hides something that means you don't know about it, so you can't know what is being hidden from you unless the hider is not very good, or you are a budding detective. I would not put the food industry in the same category as sex workers--the food industry is far worse. Look at the some of the most poverty-stricken Black communities and you'll find communities racked with diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. There was a study just released that looked a longevity across all American counties, there was a 20-year longevity gap! I don't have to tell you which group died at the youngest ages. Poor black communities are preyed upon by the food industry.
  2. @Troy, I can't rule out if it's the same activity or not without knowledge of either. However, I don't believe there's a world of difference between the two. If someone engages in sexual activity whether it's solo, a commercial pursuit, domestic or casual - there's still a level of intimacy. People say "It's just sex" and while that phrase may be true, I've learned that we humans can turn the most perfunctory behavior into a habit. Also "servicing" comes in many forms to satisfy psychological needs. If we're in an intimate relationship I don't believe our spouses shouldn't be kept in the dark. Case in point, I enjoy cooking for my family and sitting down to eat a great meal with them. I also snack on junk food that has no nutritional value, eat chips in bed when I'm really not hungry. I enjoy going to great restaurants and can easily spend almost $100 on a meal. All are pleasurable to me...but if I'm 100 lbs overweight, obviously being serviced by food is a sign there's psychological distress. With food intake, or lack thereof, there are physical signs so it's difficult to hide this activity from my spouse. If I hide my sex servicing activity (unless it leads to STD or a baby,) from my spouse, then we're not intimate. He's just a roommate and not a very close one at that. By the way, I've never really known any man to hide his masturbation habits from me,. Not really sure what I should read into that lol
