Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

This isn't a kink for many reasons but at a basic level these people cannot seperate raw irrational desire/axiomatic beliefs from rational thought and ethics, thus these people cannot establish a bubble of consent to engage in kinks within.
No, these people are the farthest thing possible from someone with a kink who has a mature relationship around it (see as positive examples most bdsm communities and how sophisticated and nuanced their discussions are around agency and how to ensure it for others).
I know you probably agree with the spirit of this and I am not trying to nitpick you here, I just think it is important to reiterate what "kink" means, continously reclaim the word and not fall into patterns where we confuse two VERY different things.
These people are awful people, they do not deserve the title of "kink couple" lol.
Non-consensual expressions of non-conventional sexuality are kink, and non-consensuality itself (along with regret, dubious consent, forced consent, and violations of consent) are kink too. Moreover, "kink" is not a word that needs reclaiming and wasn't used here as a slur.
If we are going to confront the full spectrum of Christofascism, we do need to consider not only their sex-negativity but also their particular kinks, including breeding, non-con, and non-con breeding, so that we can understand how those kinks interact with and propagate their religious beliefs. Also, sexology semantics for "kink" and "breeding kink" might not be as word-at-a-time as you suggest, akin to how the couple we're discussing probably wouldn't mind the words "press tour" or "mating" used to describe them but might balk at "mating press tour."
Dunno if this term has ever come across their desk before, boss
That's what I'm gonna call those weird hip thruster moves people do in the squat rack
