Yeah, some people just like getting off on being hurt. It's because when you get hurt, your body makes chemicals to soothe the pain. People get off on that. Stop kinkshaming.
The only reason why BDSM gets such a bad rep is because it's not the norm. There are people who are into it because of some trauma but most people just like rough kinky sex. It's a sexual kink, just like how always having sex with the lights on is also a kink. That's all it is.
I know some people feel strongly that BDSM activities can be a positive way to express your sexuality, but technically a lot of that is grounded in diagnosable mental health issues.
So I often wonder if those people might not be happier and healthier if they opted for treatment instead of simply indulging in inflicting or receiving pain and humiliation.
