Let the scientists stick with studying bugs, microbes and shit. How I play behind closed doors ought not a topic for some brainiac's "study". -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just my humble opinion and as always, I'm speaking only for myself. Individual Results May Vary I understand that. For me, it can feel like a type of invasion into my personal life by people who do not relate to kink experiences. From what I know, most research is to inform clinical practice and therapeutic care. The questions answered through these studies help therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, etc. do their job more effectively and support those who come to them. If a particular study's findings aren't directly relevant to clinicians, usually they inform future research that will eventually inform clinicians. I've seen a few studies aimed at reducing stigma, kink shaming, and promoting an overall inclusion and acceptance of the kink community as well. In my opinion, there are multiple sides to every story, and I've shared only what I've experienced and know first-hand. I hope someone finds this interesting! |
