What people are saying
Discussions frequently emphasize the study's findings that BDSM practitioners tend to display healthier psychological traits, such as lower neuroticism and greater openness. Participants use words like 'favorable,' 'support,' and 'affirm' to underscore the research's positive implications. The tone is analytical and supportive, with many quoting extensive references, which reflects a deep engagement with the scientific approach. Words like 'most-cited' and 'scientific' highlight the importance given to credible sources, illustrating a recognition of the research's potential to impact societal views.
Most discussions recognize and support the positive findings of the publication, citing the research to challenge stereotypes and affirm healthy psychological traits among BDSM practitioners.
Posts show a high level of curiosity, with many referencing specific studies, quoting academic papers, and engaging with scientific terminology, indicating strong interest in the topic.
Several social discussions involve detailed references to the study, including citations and summaries, suggesting participants are deeply contemplating and analyzing the research implications.
While some posts consider the research significant in shifting perceptions about BDSM, others treat it as part of ongoing dialogues about mental health and sexuality, indicating a moderate perception of high impact but not a transformative wave.
Abstract in brief
- The study compared BDSM practitioners with a control group and found that BDSM participants generally displayed healthier psychological traits, such as low neuroticism, high extraversion, openness, conscientiousness, and higher subjective wellbeing.
- BDSM practitioners were also less sensitive to rejection and less agreeable than controls, indicating distinct personality profiles, especially among those with dominant roles.
- Overall, the findings suggest BDSM is more like a recreational activity rather than a sign of mental health issues, challenging older stereotypes linking it to psychopathology.]

Una y otra vez se cita el estudio de Wismeijer de 2013, "Psychological Characteristics of BDSM Practitioners”, para "demostrar" que el BDSM es "bueno". El sesgo de ese estudio (autoselección) hace que el resultado no sea extrapolable a otros sujetos que los que participan en él.
