While there's a lot of kinks out there that just straight up aren't for me, there's really only two that I would say I hate.
The first is
corruption in a sexual sense. This is a setup usually phrased as something like "
MC (
usually a male)
gets involved with YC (
usually a female)
and (
usually through the use of noncon/dubcon) gets her completely addicted to sex to the point she will do anything, no matter how humiliating, just to get laid." Now besides the fact that a setup like this is pretty much going to lead to a series of nothing but sex scenes, which isn't my bag, there's also a weird air of slut-shaming about it that rubs me the wrong way. The person being "corrupted" is usually virginal or inexperienced to begin with, and their "fall" is almost always portrayed as a bad thing; like it's sad or wrong that they should suddenly enjoy sex, regardless of how vanilla or kinky it is. This leads to the whole "virgin = good, non-virgin = bad" ideal that is just a huge hot mess with some seriously shitty repercussions on society.
But I'd be a lot more open to the idea of corruption if it was painted almost as a positive thing; for example, helping someone repressed embrace and celebrate their sexuality, maybe with some orgies or partner-swapping to help them figure out what they like? Or conversely if I'm in a particularly dark mood, maybe the negative aspects of corruption don't revolve around the victim becoming obsessed with sex (newsflash: no one's dick is that good), but the fact that they have a mental/emotional attachment to a person that makes them do horrible/illegal/immoral things
outside of a sexual context. That's a way less offensive and more interesting setup, imo.
The second kink that annoys the shit out of me is milfs.
Now I have no problem with playing as or against older female characters (in fact I would love an opportunity to play one as a real, well-developed character). But the problem is when most people want to play opposite an older woman, they're really looking for one of two setups:
1. A sex-starved cougar who will relentlessly pursue their character while they write 100% reactive posts
2. A "good girl" mother/housewife/teacher whom they can rape/seduce as some sort of punishment against the woman's child/spouse partner, or just for some other random D/S reason
I hate that older female characters are almost never allowed to be people, only sex objects. It's also worth acknowledging that older male characters do get some of the same treatment, but even when people do specifically want to play against older males I think part of the appeal is knowing more about the man's life, history, and experience, whereas with women...it's pretty much about the tits. And don't get me wrong, tits are great, but women are more than tits, you know?
Anyway, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
