Both sex and gambling are not meant for minors.
Many people do not want to confess they are addicted to either one or both.
Both sex and gambling are best for pleasureful entertainment.
Many people are not ready to unveil their achievements or losses they faced in gambling. I do not understand why they are hiding when both are good for a new beginner to follow or to avoid. They are hiding their experience like sex life.
Is it right?
You are mixing two very different things and this comparison, at least, is cruel. Then a masked way to make legit (to use) and normal for everyone the gambling. Sex and gambling have nothing to do with each other. The first create life, the second destroy it. The first give only delight, the second only hurt (even when give temporary satisfaction because encourages to go further with the final result the loss of all the money), the first is made by everyone, the second only from the blinded and defrauded people.
I can do to many other comparisons which argument the not possibility to make together such things but for who want to know and understand those above are enough.
