> I know people complain about this, but BDSM erotic fiction doesn’t have to portray a realistic or SSC scenario. Yeah, you wouldn’t want to model your real life BDSM relationship on 50 Shades of Grey. In real life billionaires don’t become sexually obsessed with librarians. In real life brooding loners with tragic backstories make terrible boyfriends. In real life non-consensual sexual assault can land you in jail.

Extremely well put. I agree.
