208 would derive sexual satisfaction from relinquishing control Lawrence & Love-Crowell (2008). “One therapist suggested, however, that the negotiation skills required in BDSM play tended to weed out persons with significant psychopathology: It takes really good boundaries to negotiate anything in sex and in particular around dealing openly with fantasy and stuff. And mentally ill people really aren’t good at that and they don’t get very far. (Therapist L). They seem smarter than the average client, I think. . . They tend to be articulate, imaginative, creative people. (Therapist J).”
Richters et al. (2008). “Our findings support the idea that BDSM is simply a sexual interest or subculture attractive to a minority, and for most participants not a pathological symptom of past abuse or difficulty with ‘normal’ sex.”
Stark et al. (2005). “This interpretation is also supported by an unpublished investigation of our group, in which 110 sadomasochists had shown only minor differences with regard to various personality traits in comparison to a nonSM group. The SM group depicted more activation in the ventral striatum than the nonSM group when they saw the pictures with a sadomasochistic content, which were rated highly erotic by them and disgusting by the nonSM group.”

“Men who had engaged in BDSM scored significantly lower on a scale of psychological distress than other men. Engagement in BDSM was not significantly related to any sexual difficulties.”

I can’t stand hetero porn. Gay male sex is so erotic. Ive been looking at it sense I was 14 or 15 and it only gets better. If I ever get married I think I would encourage my husband to have lots of gay sex that way I can watch in person, and I can join in. It’s my dream! I can’t wait to see my husband having gay sex. Sometimes I dream about how great it would be to come home and find my man in bed with another man. I bet he would probly think I’m mad but then I would tell him how turned on I get from watching with other men and how I want to see himm have gay sex everyday because it brings out th freak in me.” http://www.ukblackout.com/entertainment-mainmenu-76/film-theatre-tv/873-women-who-like-to-watch-gay-porn-.html.
