As the article mentions, the word has non-sexual meanings too.

Not in our culture. It means sexual perversion.

Limited literacy is not a culture.

Words evolve always. Every word we use has a history and etymology - and many have changed meanings to the complete opposite. Not using archaic definitions isn't limited literacy, it's understanding that language isn't set in stone. Being obtuse to obfuscate the meaning of kink, that is only used in our culture, makes it seem like you're trying to downplay what kink is - makes me think you have an embarrassing hard drive.
