Thank you for clarifying, Lola.

Yes, in a perfect world, people could accept one another as they are without passing judgement. I do believe that as BDSM becomes more mainstream, we will be more free to be open about our lifestyle. However, I don't want to know how my boss fucks and don't feel a need to reveal how I share intimacy with the love of my life, even if what I do is socially acceptable. As you said, some things are just meant to be private.
