As far as I can tell this use is borrowed from/influenced by Japanese BL ; I think iirc the word they use is taken from like the BL equivalent of AO3 tags. So it's, hm, explicitly a BDSM thing but with the additional context of the stories and tropes that you get in BL associated with the M-type characters?
Which I definitely don't have a full handle on or anything but. Yeah.
