Gah. I hate people who think they are the be-all-end-all of knowledge on a particular subject. I mean, I myself have been known to pontificate about certain things, but a fic doesn't agree with my personal understanding of things, I usually either view it as AU or, if it's severe enough to impair my enjoyment, y'know--DON'T READ THE FIC.
Anyway, I find it odd to say that your representation of BDSM relationships is inaccurate when the person clearly doesn't seem bothered by the fact that the characters probably aren't tying each other up and having gay sex on the show. Wouldn't that be a far more glaring oversight? Oh wait, that's right! This is fanfic which is always going to be inherently AU to a degree, is about fictional people in fictional relationships doing fictional things.
Or, to summarize: Does this person understand that the fic was not entitled 'A Detailed Do-It-Yourself Guide to BDSM'? Bitch, don't you be messing with mah wife! *puts up dukes*
