I hate the idea of kink-shaming. Having boundries and being a prude, fucking fine and good. People should kink-shame all they fucking want.

Especially so because it always seems to me that these people who are being "kink-shamed" are veering on pedophilia (like the TiM's in this excerpt) or some other sexual deviancy. In essence, yet another super woke way to make abusive behaviour acceptable, and the so-called progressives are cheering them on! Intersectional feminists at the helm, as usual.

Strangulation is a huge red flag in domestic violence for worse violence in the future and potential homicide. But by all means, “choke me, Daddy,” right?

I watch a lot of non-US entertainment and have seen a dark trend, especially out of Latin America, of BDSM being normalized.

In one show, the hero starts to strangle his sex partner but then they don't show the rest. What is ironic is that the same show made a big deal about how awful domestic violence is, showing brutal scenes of a woman being beaten by her lover in which you're obviously meant to be shocked and horrified.

Another Mexican (?) show had two lovers - always rich, white-looking people - bring out bondage gear and whips. This particular show seemed to be aimed at an uneducated audience, so what message do average women take out of watching rich, white Mexicans prepare to handcuff and whip each other as sexual gratification?

Nothing good.

My point being that the BDSM gas-lighting seems to be going on in many parts of the world. Who does it benefit? Not women.

There’s a lot of colorism in Mexican culture and it’s tied to class. Tall, rich, white; short, brown, poor.

Yeah, I have noticed that speaking to immigrants from Latin America and watching Latin American shows. Mexicans seem to dislike blacks whereas Columbians seem to be more comfortably multi-racial. But that's just my impression, I know almost nothing.
