Hey bb! I totally get what you mean, but do you think you could reword that a bit? The author generally puts hir name on those fics, and I don't think you meant to imply that they should be ashamed about [whatever kink], but it's reading that way to me.

Hrm, sorry, was being tongue-in-cheek but I see what you mean. I don't even mean necessarily kinks that I am embarrassed about--let alone that someone else should feel ashamed of--just stuff I don't, for whatever reason, feel comfortable talking about with strangers.

<333 I figured it was something like that. Thanks for explaining, I appreciate it.

No, thanks for pointing out what I said; I went back and read it and was HORRIFIED. That's not what I meant at all!
