Some [[BDSM]] activities can be seen from a [[vanilla]] point of view as being so peculiar as to be insane.  Many countries even have laws that make certain [[consensual]], safe activities between adults [[BDSM and the law|illegal]] on the grounds that anyone indulging in such activities is not '''sane'''.
 
  
Just as climbing up dangerous rocks in sub-zero temperatures with low oxygen can be hazardous yet is not a sign of insanity, so involvement in the relationships and activities discussed in [[Wipipedia|this encyclopedia]] can be hazardous yet is not a sign of insanity.  What might be insane is to climb Everest without proper preparation and thoughtful care.  What might be insane is to undertake [[Sadomasochism|sadomasochistic]] practices, or enter a [[Power Exchange|controlled relationship]] without proper preparation and thoughtful care.
 
 
[[Play|Playing]] sanely does not mean giving up the wild, abnormal or extreme. It means having due regard to the possibility of emotional harm and considering safety aspects before undertaking anything that has risks of physical harm.
