About
I'm Not Kink Shaming, I'm Kink Asking Why is a catchphrase and reaction image featuring a character named Lord Rogers from the 1994 animated film The Swan Princess. The meme shows Lord Rogers throwing up his hands with text next to him that reads, "I'm not kink-shaming, I'm kink asking why." Kink shaming refers to the practice of criticizing someone's specific sexual predilections.
Origin
X (formerly known as Twitter) saw sporadic use of the phrase "Not kink shaming. Just kink asking why" in 2020, with the earliest post being made on March 5th, 2020.[1][2]
The earliest known post of the phrase combined with an image of Lord Rogers was an iFunny[3] post on February 17th, 2021, posted by user Shadowofthygods, gathering 14 smiles in roughly two years (seen below).
The reaction image was subsequently reposted on X by SmeargleShuny on May 20th, 2021, and LinaLovesick on August 7th, 2021.[4][5]

![f velvet74sub 633K Sand Springs, Oklahoma | A couple's sexual game turned horribly wrong this morning, as they accidentally burned their house to the ground with a 75- year old flamethrower. I'm not kink shaming, I'm kink asking why. OR roach-works i think what i love most about this headline is that the couple clearly admitted it. they admitted they were doing a sex game. if your house burns down, even because of a flamethrower, you have so many other things you could say besides 'yeah we were having kinky sex', but these two people went and told journalists with their full chest that they were definitely, absolutely, 100% using the flame for erotic reasons. thrower god bless america. 47,189 notes Mar 7th, 2022 : []](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/651/599/fca.png "I'm Not Kink Shaming I'm Kink Asking Why")
