I'd say yes. Anything can be a kink or a fetish or just a walk on the wild side. (do do do...).Now here’s a statement I fully support! My kind of Dominant
Question for discussion: can political standpoints be a kink or fetish? I wonder if some prefer to submit to someone who isn’t aligned with them, someone whose viewpoints actually actively harm them. Is this a type of masochism?
There are probably half a dozen ways it works as a kink or fetish or just sexual desire. In the sub/dom arena any perceived or real power difference can be the source of that sexual attraction. Add in the psycho-sexual tension of shame and humiliation and you've got another route into sexuality. Heck, just opposites attract sexual tension is powerful enough for some people. The "bad boy" attraction is potentially another. And of course, it could venture into masochism or sadism. We humans can take anything and turn it into a form of sexual attraction/fulfillment.
Personally, I have never asked a person's political alignment, nor have I every rejected a person because of their political alignment. Of all the things that form my psycho-sexual identity, politics isn't even in the mix.
