I feel like people theorising the link between kinks and trauma often miss the point. You don't need complex theories to explain why someone is into a particular kink - it's just fun. What you need to explain is why people are stuck in a particular range of fun things.

so do I understand correctly that your point is that "why do I sexually enjoy [kink]?" is something that could potentially be explained, but you don't have to if you don't want to? or that there's nothing worthwhile to be gained there, as long as ur not in distress?

I think that exploring why you have a particular kink can be an interesting and rewarding activity, but that the default explanation for why people have a kink should probably be "it's fun", like with anything else, and the way people link kink with trauma ignores that.

Are you saying... our feelings don't require explanation or justification? That as motivations for how we act they are self evident?
