I'm also a bit confused about this secret because it doesn't really match my experience, both in fandom in general and in every individual fandom I've been in, but maybe OP has different experiences.

But yeah, I'm not very sexually adventurous at all but no one knows because I just... don't say anything about it on the internet. And I've never come across a post in the wild that I felt was shaming people for having tame tastes. The closest I can think of was I once saw someone posting on their own blog (I don't even know if they tagged it or anything) about how Star Trek: Voyager was a show for lesbians and they get "jumpscared" when they run across someone on the internet who legitimately ships Janeway/Chakotay. I just had a "lol you sound really young" type reaction to that and immediately quit browsing their blog. But that's the only example off the top of my head I can think of, and I don't even know if that really counts because... is lesbianism really less "tame" than heterosexuality?? But the poster had this vibe that shipping an obvious het pairing was just SO unbelievably uncool, and I do think the post's wording was very shame-y in nature. That said, I just am not insecure enough to feel shamed by something like that. I was wondering if that was the kind of thing OP is referring to??

The only other things I can think of are (IMO obviously joke-y) posts that are like "If you're into [kink] but only the [soft kink] variant, that is WEAK." I can't really think of examples with actual sexual kinks, but I've seen ones for tropes e.g. "If you're trying to bill this ship as enemies to lovers and they don't even try to kill each other at least once, what even are you doing?" or whatever. Again, I've seen that kind of post around, but it never occurred to me to be shamed by it. Just seemed like people venting their frustration that they can't find the variant on the kink they like because the tag is saturated with a milder variant that doesn't scratch the itch. Is this kind of post what OP is referring to??
