I have maintained for quite a long time, that kinky people, be they weekend dabblers, munch-only attendees or dyed-in-the-leather lifestyle-rs are some of the most well-adjusted, happy and cordial folk I have ever been around. Sure, these folks are as screwed-up as anybody else, they have mortgages they have to pay, are suffering through jobs, surfing the high waters of relationships. But from what I have encountered, most kinky folks recognize the sure line between the fantasy and the real of life, and understand better than mostly anybody else the concept of age-play.
