Wings honey.........no.......our desires for kink do not always come from abuse......a good deal of us......just like it.......lol

and yes.....i have plenty of those places hiding in my mind, but that is not why i love this lifestyle. Im not saying that it is not a coping method either, if that is what is working for someone then great......i just wanted to say that many of us just love what and who we are....we are not a product of abuse.....Hugs
