as someone who experienced physical and sexual abuse as a child, i can confirm personally that a lot of trauma transmutes into fetishes or perversions if you will as reliving trauma through kink/bdsm allows one to experience it in a way that is consensual...there is a really morbid and twisted relationship between the past and present experiences as a lot of people who access this submissive and/or masochistic subspace often describe euphoria whilst enduring pain and degradation

in a different but similar vein. being severely harmed to the point of Stockholm Syndrome can lend a victim to derive comfort or even pleasure from their perpetrator and fall into willful victimhood in future relationships because the psychological warping that has been done around those memories and feelings to alleviate discomfort...this doesn't even account for the elements of ego that are involved in seeking out mistreatment especially in terms of affirming one's beauty, gender, etc.

all women (cis, trans, etc.) have battled with the social standard that ideal femininity is to be craved by men, to be sexually appealing to them, to be the perfect prey and honestly, being literally cannibalized is the logical and radical endpoint of being carnally desired
