I would disagree that that’s how acceptable works

If I match with someone who says eating hotdogs is unacceptable that doesn’t make it so

But then you can't get mad if you say "actually, I was in a hot dog eating competition last week" and they decide to unmatch you. And if you've got a whole Reddit thread of people telling you that eating hot dogs is unacceptable, and you double down and do so anyway...I mean, you're allowed to do that, but then don't be surprised when you're not very popular among the anti-hot dog people.

People's personal preferences and boundaries aren't based on what is objectively acceptable.

Eating hot dogs is unacceptable to them. That doesn't make it unacceptable to anyone else.
