#sexualpreference — Public Fediverse posts

This story and that of Marius Gustavson (linked in the article) engaged my interest because I have read very little about the sexual preferences and practices described. I find them more than a little off-putting.

Nevertheless, beyond the sensationalistic interest, the articles did get me thinking.

I am aware of this equation:

My Thing That I Really Like = Your Fetish = Their Weird Fixation.

Yet in addition to the standard liberal thoughts about the harm principle, the licitness or otherwise of paternalism, informed consent and so on, I also found myself wondering about the propriety of terms like "disgust" and "perversion".

I still have not sorted my thoughts out.
