The Washington Post raised eyebrows on Wednesday following the publication of an op-ed arguing that "kink" should remain a staple at LGBTQ Pride parades.

"Yes, kink belongs at Pride," the headline on Lauren Rowello's piece said. "And I want my kids to see it."

Others called the piece "disgusting" or "garbage" and advised Rowello to "get help."

Probably a bad question but what does kink culture consist of? Is it more than the normal nakedness and other stuff you see at Pride parades

Just an "alternative" lifestyle.

Kink is defined as “consensual, non-traditional sexual, sensual, and intimate behaviors such as sadomasochism, domination and submission, erotic roleplaying, fetishism, and erotic forms of discipline,”

Things like pretending to be a dog on a leash. Just a silly roleplaying.

To each his own as to how people want to live their lives but based on what I’ve seen at SF pride parades I would not be bringing my young daughter there. Curious though if what they are talking about here is any different than what I’ve seen at previous events (obviously not a question you can answer, haha)

LOL yeah. Well, it's also curious that the same thing is no skin off the nose in Europe. Some people walk naked and nobody bats an eye.

Tells us a lot about Americans.

Sincere question, how does "kink culture" make society better? What's it's major contribution to the advancement of society?

Better torture skills on Gitmo prisoners.

It’s not even the nakedness, it’s more the various simulated sex acts and that type of thing.

Yeah I understand. But to accuse them of pedophilia is outrageous.

Besides, children have seen worse things, especially in movies. They aren't dumb. LOL. Well some are.

Correct blur the lines of what's acceptable then anything becomes acceptable.

Not even a smirk out of you? Perhaps I need to work more on my jokes.

What is curious is that nobody bats an eye at children being present at Mardi Gras and summer break beach parties.

So it really adds nothing to society but only to the selfish individuals who pursue it. That's pretty funny.

Entertainment adds nothing to society?

Depends on the entertainment. I think it would be entertaining to piss on a leftist. How about you? That would add something don't you think?
