Does make me wonder how universal the term ‘Dungeon Master’ is understood. My friends are all nerds who understand, so I’ve little to work with.

Well. There’s the RPG term, where the DM runs the game, more or less.

Then there’s the S&M term, where a man (or woman) runs a “dungeon” where a lot of “adult” fun, with heavy bondage play.

I think it’s a sad commentary on the American penchant to think everything has a sexual meaning unless proven otherwise. There’s precedent: Victorians kept furniture covered for decency, but had quite a lot of pornography kept hidden.

I think it’s better to assume that a dungeon is a sex thing, rather than a place where people do torture or enslave people. Personally, I think it’s better to be seen as a pervert than a criminal that specializes in human rights violations XD
