I'm sure you have heard of the catharsis/cathexis thing that leads high powered businessmen feeling the need to be tied up and spanked? How it is usually the trodden-on secretary who feels the urge to do the spanking and wear the leather?

Roles and points of view diametrically opposed to the ones we are naturally inclined to fulfill hold a special place in our psyche. Most people simply chose to ignore or defy that fact.

As a former (heh, "former", right) intelligence professional I can't help but feel drawn to the enigma that defies unraveling. I guess that it is all too easy to forget that not everyone feels the same way.

Anyway, spend some time any one of the western mystical and/or initiatory traditions (Masons, ect.) and you'll understand.
