We don’t like to talk about it…and its not true for a lot of well adjusted couples…but there is a good bit of mental illness in the lifestyle. I could say that about any group / any community. quote:
Many people feel they have a lot to atone for… EVERYONE has something to atone for. That is why confession is good for the soul, why it is a main tenet of 12 step programs, religions, group therapy. quote:
they deserve humiliation in their minds… It is away to cope with their illness. That is in my unprofessional opinion. Butch What an arrogant, biased, uneducated opinion. Wow. I have seen people use wiitwd not for atonement but for power. People who have been abused reliving their experience as an adult, with an adult mindset, and HEAL from their hurts. I've seen people who had connected leather / humiliation / cerebral palsy (ffs) with sexuality ... it's no different from people connecting champagne, flowers, chocolates with sexuality. Just different details. I've seen people use this type of forum to express their creativity, their ability to work with their hands to make things, experss things like an actor would. Life is complex. So are people. best, sunshine edited - grammar
