I think this is a loaded topic and post after the recent Ban Log.

However if you want my opinion then it's contextual, if I were to say play a character in a relationship and was domestically abused by my spouse. That carries a great deal of stigma and therefore I'd want to stop and discuss the matter at length and set boundaries OOC with my RP partner before we move forward.

Having been in that position before, I'd rather not leave anything to assumptions. As it would become very easy to twist and manipulate the narrative were boundaries and comfort levels not set ahead of time.

EDIT: If someone were to suplex me in a spar, me RPing bruises and such is something known as selling and building up my RP partner. Which is far more kosher and doesn't require as much communication. Intent and honesty is the contention in any situation like this.
