~noncon land~ tends to have some of the most robust and considerate tagging cultures around

Does it? When I read noncon, I ignore tags, and when I post it, I choose not to warn.

It just seems like an odd category for squeamish people to explore.

NAYRT in my experience, people who write darker stuff tend to be aware of the fact that not everyone wants to see what they write so they tag it and are quick to point out if other people should tag. And if you like one thing (i.e. noncon) that doesn't mean you're okay with other things (like having tongues cut out), it doesn't make you squeamish to want tags so you know what you're getting into.

It's not about being "squeamish." A lot of people are into noncon stuff because fiction can be a safe, in-control way to engage with really thorny consent issues and consent-related baggage. And responsible tagging practices helps make it so.

I'm glad you don't feel the need to read warnings yourself - I usually don't either - and "choose not to warn" is very explicitly a "proceed at your own risk" space. There might be particular pockets of noncon fans/fandom that aren't as into careful tagging, but the very *best* and most thoughtful tagging cultures I've ever encountered have absolutely been dark kink/noncon heavy spaces. And if secret OP is used to that, I'm not surprised they were taken aback.
