Is rebelling against authority a form of Sadism & Masochism?

Think about it. You are rebelling in school, or work, or against your parents, or the government, or law enforcement, or just anything you can't win over. You might escape them sometimes, and feel a sense of freedom and rebellion thrill from it, but sometmes you'll get punshed, severtiy depending on what u did and who you are rebelling from.

    I totally agree with the Freedom part but not the S&M part. S&M is about another person controlling you....no freedom in that, the person just likes punishment or being controlled....when rebelling you resist control.
