I've noticed that a lot of smart people in tech jobs are neurodivergent. And that neurodivergent people have a very different take on sex. More open and direct, things like polyamory, bdsm etc. This tends to be frowned upon by neurotypical people, especially of the religious or conservative kind, and associated with bad morals.

But I don't think that's true, in fact I see a really strong focus on consent in these communities. It's not what conservatives want to see, they want to see everyone in a marriage, with kids and a family home etc. Because that's what their ideal world looks like. But there's nothing really wrong with it if someone wants a gangbang for her birthday as mentioned in that article as an example. As long as everyone consented and the evidence provided mentions elaborate interviews and STI tests.

Also I think this is more correlation than cause and effect. We all know the saying that furries built the internet and it surprises nobody.
