  "Good people can do bad things. The world is not divided into Evil Rapists and Good Normal People. But if people never suffer any consequences within a group for doing bad things, they have no reason to stop. The consequences fall on the people harassed and driven away; they also fall on the group as a whole, which is diminished by the lost contributions from people harassed and driven away."

Nothing at all against the BDSM or kink* community, but I really don't agree with that being added to the queer label. It's not a sexual orientation or gender issue, and while there may be some stigma against it, people are unlikely to bring it up in conversation at work and get fired from it the way a gay or transgender person might.


*Before anyone has a go at me: remember- devils.

I'm not sure I agree with you but I can understand where you're coming from.
