Why this word is great
SATYROMANIAC — [Noun] A man afflicted by a pathological and compulsive sexual appetite. From Ancient Greek σάτυρος (sáturos, "satyr, a lustful mythological creature") combined with the English combining form -maniac (from Greek μανία, manía, "madness, frenzy"). Unlike a "lecher," which implies a sordid but chosen indulgence, or a "libertine," which suggests a calculated philosophy of sensual freedom, the satyromaniac is driven by a clinical engine of need. It is the frantic, furtive glance in a crowded room; the sweat-stained sheets of a solitary bed; the animal panic in the eyes of a creature who has mistaken a thousand bodies for a single, elusive cure—a curse of mythology given flesh and lived as a waking torment.
