Sadism and masochism, often grouped under BDSM (bondage, discipline, dominance, submission, sadism, and masochism), can be considered normal variations of human sexuality when practiced consensually and safely between consenting adults. They are not classified as abnormal behaviors unless they cause harm or distress to oneself or others outside of consensual contexts.
