Because of “Fifty Shades of Grey”, B.D.S.M sex that originally sounded scary has become a little more “friendly” A little more. However, according to the results of many studies by psychologists, Gray does not actually reflect the majority of B.D.S.M practitioners - at least rich, young, CEOs with six packs and helicopters are in the minority. B.D.S.M: Bondage (bondage), Discipline (training), Sadism (sadism), Masochism (masochism) ##How many B.D.S.M practitioners are there? Between 2001 and 2002, an Australian research team conducted telephone interviews with nearly 20,000 respondents aged 16 to 59. Among sexually active respondents, 2.2% of men and 1.3% of women had engaged in B.D.S.M behavior in the past year. Outside of practice, how many people have B.D.S.M sexual fantasies? In another study just published this month, a Canadian research team asked 1,516 adults aged 18 to 77 (799 women, 717 men) to rate the frequency of 55 sexual fantasy situations and write down their favorite Favorite sexual fantasy. Among them, 64.6% of women and 53.3% of men said that they had sexual fantasies about being “dominated”; while 46.7% of women and 59.6% of men fantasized about “dominance”. In the blog of psychologist Justin J. Lehmiller, he also conducted a simple survey among readers: among the 391 readers who filled out the questionnaire, at least half had played the dominant or dominant role in sex at one time or another. The experience of the dominated. |Fantasy situations|Female|Male| | – | – | – | |Playing the dominant role in sexual behavior|64.6%|53.3%| |Playing the dominant role in sexual behavior|46.7%|59.6% | |Fantasy about being tied up and having sex|52.1%|46.2%| |Fantasy about being tied up and having sex|41.7%|48.4%| |Fantasy about being spanked or whipped|23.8%|43.5%| |Fantasy about being spanked or Being Whipped |36.3%|28.5%| Does it appear that more people aspire to or practice B.D.S.M than previously thought? But if you are yearning for B.D.S.M, you may have to worry about finding the “right” partner. In the past, surveys have found that compared with the general population, the proportion of single heterosexual men among B.D.S.M practitioners is higher. This is probably because it is difficult to find a partner who can share the same interests and establish a stable relationship. It would be a bit naive to imagine that the problem of “difficult to find a partner” can be improved because of the popularity of the “Grey” story. After all, “Grey” can probably only be called an “innocent CEO novel with handcuffs” (“The Domineering President Handcuffs Me Tight”? ) or “President’s Edition of Twilight Zone” do not reflect the true appearance of the B.D.S.M community. Gray was able to have B.D.S.M relationships with 15 women before meeting Anna, again, this can only be attributed to the fact that he is a rich and young CEO. ##So what tricks do B.D.S.M practitioners play? I hope you won’t misunderstand because of movies or novels that B.D.S.M practitioners fly helicopters for dates or have their own ultra-luxurious game rooms. So what tricks do B.D.S.M practitioners play?
In a literature review published by psychologist Sandnabba (NK) and others in 2002, 40 B.D.S.M behaviors were sorted out, among which bandage, flagellation, and handcuffs, which were featured in the movie “Grey”, accounted for 88.7%, 82.8%, and 74.7% respectively, all of which were ranked among the top. 5 common items. In terms of role-playing, the most common one is of course master/slave (55.9%), followed by uniform (38.8%), teacher/student (29.1%), execution (23.6%), hospital (15.7%), and rape (13.5%). However, if you look for this research document (due to the scale, it is not possible to list it here), you will find that there are many common items that do not appear in the work “Grey” (such as the 7th The dildo Didos, as well as the leather outfit in eighth place, both accounted for 72.6%), and Gray’s gameplay of sliding ice cubes across Anna’s body actually only ranked 28th (Ice, 33.9%). It’s no wonder that “Grey” It is not generally favored by the B.D.S.M community. On the other hand, one of the impressions most people have of SM - Wax is only ranked 27th, accounting for 35%, which is not as common as everyone thinks. ##B.D.S.M practitioners are mentally unhealthy? In the story, Gray, who plays the master (or “dominance” or “dominance”), had an unpleasant childhood experience. The author connects Gray’s SM habit with his past. Do people with SM tendencies have abnormal psychology?
In a study published in 2006 by psychologist Dr. Connolly (acted in “Superman 3”), compared 10 psychological disorders among B.D.S.M practitioners and non-B.D.S.M practitioners. The results found that B.D.S.M practitioners had lower levels of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychological sadism, psychological masochism, borderline pathology, Paranoia; to the same extent in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), dissociation, and narcissism. Similar results also appeared in the study published by Richters et al. in 2008: male B.D.S.M practitioners had significantly lower psychological distress than other men. Later, Dutch psychologists Andreas Wismeijer and Marcel van Assen also compared the personality traits of B.D.S.M practitioners and non-B.D.S.M practitioners. They surveyed 902 B.D.S.M practitioners and 434 non-B.D.S.M practitioners through an online questionnaire. The questionnaire did not indicate that the study was comparing the differences between the two groups. All participants would only think that this was a behavioral-related study, which would avoid them There is a deviation in the answer. As a result, B.D.S.M practitioners are more extroversion, conscientiousness, openness, and have a higher degree of subjective well-being. In addition, they are less neurotic and less rejection sensitive. There is a negative consequence, however: B.D.S.M practitioners are relatively less agreeable.
Interestingly, among the B.D.S.M practitioners in this survey, dominants had the highest scores, followed by “bidirectional “switch” (sometimes dominating, sometimes being dominated), with the lowest being a masochist; but no matter what role they play in B.D.S.M, their scores are higher than those of non-B.D.S.M practitioners. But psychologist Lehmiller has some reservations about the findings. He believes that there is not much difference in the scores between the two groups, and it cannot be concluded that B.D.S.M practitioners have higher scores (but at least not lower than non-B.D.S.M practitioners); in addition, the questionnaires of B.D.S.M practitioners were collected from a B.D.S.M forum in the Netherlands, which may not necessarily Reflecting the situation in other B.D.S.M communities, the non-B.D.S.M practitioners in the study were on average 6 years younger and less educated. Of course, the research team has taken these factors into account, but it still cannot rule out whether other demographic variables are affecting the study results. Overall, research shows that B.D.S.M practitioners do not suffer from mental health problems.
##What changes will B.D.S.M cause to the psychology? A research team from Northern Illinois University once recruited 58 SM practitioners to measure the concentrations of cortisol, which represents stress, and testosterone, which represents dominance, from their saliva. In addition, they also measured psychological levels. The closeness of the relationship, and whether there is any difference before and after engaging in SM.
The study found that during SM, the cortisol concentration of the dominated person increased, but the dominant person did not. Changes; specifically, testosterone levels also rise in female dominated subjects. Study participants who had enjoyable SM experiences experienced reduced psychological stress and stronger relationships. This is most likely because both parties agree that the relationship is part of SM, with care and affection that has the potential to enhance the relationship. Another study conducted by psychologist Dr. Brad Sagarin found that “bipolar people” will enter altered states of consciousness whether they are dominated or dominant in SM. . The difference is that the dominated person will enter a state of “transient hypofrontality”, while the dominant person will enter a state of “flow”.
When a person is in a state of “instantaneous low prefrontal lobe function”, the perception of pain will be reduced and there will be floating A sense of peace, tranquility, and a distorted sense of time. Similar states occur after dreams, endurance races, meditation, daydreaming, hypnosis, or drug use. Flow state allows people to become focused, concentrated, unable to feel their own existence, and have optimal work performance while feeling excited and fulfilled. Dr. Sagein believes that it is probably these two states of consciousness that prompt B.D.S.M practitioners to continue to invest in B.D.S.M. Past studies have found that the B.D.S.M community generally has higher education levels and higher income than the overall social average. As for Gray, is it because of playing the dominant role in SM that the “flow” state brought about his career success? This will probably only be known after a psychologist visits him and his secretary says, “Mr. Gray can see you now.” ##Mr. Gray doesn’t want to see you Luoluo write such a long story. He probably “turned off” after reading it, and there is no reason to support “Grey”. This article is just to show that people with B.D.S.M hobbies are mentally sound (even healthier than “average people”), but it does not mean that B.D.S.M practitioners practice B.D.S.M for mental health.
Remind you, if your heart wanders when watching a movie or novel, don’t mistake it for the S or M hidden in your heart. Because you are ready to get involved and fall into B.D.S.M (after all, people who don’t like hot pot will still only eat “vanilla” ice cream when they go to a hot pot restaurant), otherwise you will take the elevator and leave in disgust after the president rewards your ass with a big six.
