Running a accessibility checker on my websites, I got "reminded" about the ABBR and ACRONYM tags. Which led me to this question:
Is BDSM an acronym or an abbreviation? And whichever it is, what should the "expanded" version of the term be?

No idea if the readers will treat the two tags differently. But if they'll get stuff prounounced letter by letter instead of trying to turn them into a word, that'll be a bonus.
