An amazing cross-section of humanity: Men, women, transgender, heterosexuals, gays, bisexuals. Every ethnicity. White-collar and blue-collar. It's really very, very diverse -- though we do have an unusually high percentage of lawyers. I don't know why.

-- Susan Wright, founder of the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom, discussing the people who attend erotic BDSM -- bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, sadism and masochism -- parties in the Washington Post.

Although I'm not entirely sure what to think of this, I'm glad that lawyers are so....in tune - shall we say?
