“I’m not kink shaming…”
“Don’t yuck someone else’s yum…”
“Whatever floats your boat…”
Shut up. I don’t care.
Your kink is gross and I don’t have to be okay with it just because you’re proud about it. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Some kinks are shameful. Hell, many kinks are shameful. And not just the obvious ones like pedophilia or bestiality or snuff.
I had more specifics drawn up but I figured it’s probably safest to keep it kind of vague.
But it is my opinion that “don’t kink shame!” should never have become the default.
That’s probably the crux of the unpopular opinion here so that’ll do.

It’s a bit like attacking someone’s food preferences. One of the more commonly seen examples is pineapple on pizza: some love it, while others are absolutely as repulsed as you describe. It’s just a matter of taste and personal preferences. Attacking others for liking pineapple opens the attackers up to being attacked for liking something else (e.g. olives).
In the end it’s best just to accept that such variations in people keeps the world from being bland and boring. Variety, as they say, is the spice of life (assuming it’s all above board as the other commenter mentioned).
I can fully understand this perspective, and having had a think about this, I realize that it’s not up to me to be the morality police, and the line of thinking expressed in my original post is the root of such things as homophobia and other social discrimination.
Has another person stated, I think that to rephrase, the other side of the coin to my unpopular opinion would be that disgust is a perfectly valid reaction to people bringing up kinks unwanted, and disgust being viewed as stigmatic or problematic should not be the case.
