Okay then: What rights exist for LGBT people do not stop us being discriminated against for being into BDSM.
They don't even stop us being discriminated against for being LGBT. There are times and places under the law when it is considered acceptable to discriminate against LGBT people. You are never worse off under the law being hetero than you would be being LGBT. You are sometimes worse off under the law being LGBT than being hetero. And even when the law does call it discrimination to act against LGBT people, it's still time and effort and risk of failure to get (at best) the result that hetero people get by default.
As a hetero person, you do not suffer any legal disadvantage compared with LGBT people. You also don't suffer the considerable social disadvantages and discrimination. As such, the words "poor straights" are a demonstration of how little you understand how good you have it. If I seem a little sharp with you, this is why.

NP, if i can say tho, this is a post about bdsm rights. Personaly i have never had any problems from either bdsm or being bi, but if i get bi issues the law is there, for bdsm issues there is no defence. If you are a straight person you will not be sacked for being straight obviously but you could be sacked or worse for being into bdsm.
Though im bi i really identify as being Bdsmsexual or what ever the right term is! commitment is like ham and eggs. the chicken makes a contribution, the pig makes a commitment.

If someone sacked me because I was kinky, assuming my contract allowed for this, even if there were a law against it, I'd never throw the book at them. That's no different than stealing.

Hang on a minute.
Expecting a firm to obey the law of the country they're operating in has nothing more in common with stealing than the firm refusing to obey the law does. Yes, if you accepted that contract and then breached it, they have a right to dismiss you. On the other hand, if they chose to operate in a country with a certain law then they've accepted the contract to operate by that law.
