<p>A serious conversation could be had for non-horrible representation for the BDSM crowd for example. Many are already rightfully taking place for transgender gamers. Those two matters are not equivalent, but still warrant serious discussion. </p>

<p>There's a difference between fetishes, especially destructive ones, and orientation and gender identity. And putting it all in the same basket is going to make a lot of people very, very upset. </p>

So here are some ideas.</p>
<p>S and M community, Crossdressers- Add whips and restraints to RPG venues. Go back to the old name Dungeons and Drag Ons.</p>
<p>Necrophiles- set up RPGs in graveyards and morgues.</p>
<p>Bestiality- set up RPGs in paddocks of love.</p>
<p>Socially inept nerds who never get laid- no action needed.</p>
<p>Adult Babies- no action needed.</p>
<p>Transgender- Have the Pathfinder society provide gender re-assignment to the player whenever its available to the character. Perhaps too expensive to be practical.</p>
<p>Golden showers- close the toilets at RP venues.</p>
<p>Amputee fetihists/ cannibals- I know some really irritating roleplayers at the local roleplaying club. I propose mutilating them and then cooking the removed limbs, catering to both groups. There is even a kitchen right there.</p>
<p>Dogging- set up RPGs at dogging venues.</p>The threads on LGBT roleplayers and women in RPGs put me in mind of other minorities we could try to cater to better. So here are some ideas.
