I come from the Supernatural fandom, so my views on kink are, uh, a little warped. ;)
We've had a recent MAJOR thing about kink and warnings and what is a kink and what is actually a slide into dangerous/bordering on pedophilia territory.
SPN fandom in general is not into kink-shaming, but it does happen. I discourage these practices in the comm I run, but also request that people warn for things that could potentially be triggering for others, in order to ensure that the comm remains a safe space.
I generally put kink in my warnings, because there will always be people who find specific kinks triggering, and I feel they belong in warnings more than comments, because especially in my case people's eyes glaze over when they read my author's notes. ;)
