These are indeed problems, but I don't think they're related to BDSM. Vanilla people have these exact same problems too; haven't you heard them whine about it? Of the time my coworkers are not talking about reality television, I would suppose that 90% of it is spent on the discussion of problems within their boring, shallow relationships.

Do you walk around with a leather mask on? Do you keep a paddle on your desk? If you advertise your sexuality in public, I am unsurprised that you're treated like a weirdo. Once again, this has nothing to do with BDSM, and everything to do with the fact that the vast majority of people don't want to know a fucking thing about your sex life. If you don't advertise your sexuality in public but still find yourself being treated like a creep, is it possible that has always been the case, but you're just noticing now?
