Good to hear! Things like this need to be studied properly, scientifically.

One point that was made in an article I was reading somewhere was that most of the theories about "abnormal" sexual practices were researched/developed by practicing psychologists. The subjects of study of course were their patients. If a person is seeking professional help, then it is because their BDSM tendencies, or whatever, are a problem to them. That means that the majority of BDSM practitioners who are quite happy with their lives come under the radar...leading to theories based on an unscientific sample.

I know this is kind of a sweeping claim, but I believe it may have some truth in it.
