Is BDSM an induced illusion or a concealed reality?

I asked myself this question many times.
Are my fantasies influenced by porn?Or is it obvious that it lies within me?

Even though I am in a place where I cannot do things freely, I have made many efforts to experience this life.( BDSM and its fantasies)

Are only the masters and mistress seeking wealth?

I would be happy to know all your opinions on this matter.

I think you’re being a bit vague to the point that the body of the post doesn’t seem to align with the title.

Can you clarify what you’re getting at?

It can be both feeding on each other it lies with you and it is influenced by your experiences.

You've said & asked different things that don't go together. What do you really want to know?

Personally, I don't waste time watching porn - it's not helpful in real life.

What's wealth got to do with BDSM?

This is not germane to the topic, but I'm posting this to explain that I have known that dude (Arta6969) for several years now via DM and Bond (platonic).

Through it all I have had to carefully read what he writes because he speaks near-zero English. He told me that he uses Google Translate in these communications, or its equivalent over in Iran, and what he tries to say comes through as occasionally stiff and/or literal. Farsi to English and back aren't one of the easier translations, either, I tend to think, but that's neither here nor there.

While I can't know what he was thinking as he posed the question, I will bet a sandwich that what posted was not precisely what he wants to say.

Arta6969 joined Cage just under a month after I did ---(I joined November 30, 2017) ---and what we are all seeing is his very first post to the Forums in all these years so what I have to go on is several years of friendly messaging.

Grain of Salt time, guys and dolls!

Thanks for the clarification. That makes much more sense.
