* TruthInTelevision:  Many people who suffered physical or sexual abuse develop hypersexuality (or "nymphomania") :  an addictive compulsion to sex. While some people treat the affliction as CursedWithAwesome, it is '''not'''. Hypersexuals derive little-to-no pleasure from the act, and the compulsion occurs without any consideration for personal attraction or safety.  Reasons why this is developed can vary per person, from brain trauma to dementia to simply a personal coping mechanism which tries to [[NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization convince themselves that they enjoy sex in any form]].

In ''Film/BlackSnakeMoan'', the protagonist is an attractive young woman (portrayed by Creator/ChristinaRicci), who was sexually-abused by her stepfather and became a hypersexual, feeling an overwhelming urge to just have something put inside her body no matter where or how.  The focus of the plot is her [[TheKindnapper kind-napping]] by Creator/SamuelLJackson's character and how he tries to cure her by making her [[GoingColdTurkey go cold turkey]].
