I don't understand why you had to explain that it was do to BDSM. Couldn't you just have assured them it isn't abuse but it is personal? Or lie and say you've been taking an MMA training program?

I don't know how believable that would be, especially depending on the type of marks and cuts they were

If they were able to think the marks were from abuse I dont see why they would think the Mark's were inconsistent with MMA training

My anesthesiologist called social services after a surgery in Dec because he wouldn't accept my explanation that the scars and marks are from Bdsm. He said I was just covering for him.

Be careful with the choking. It can cause internal bruising that can be very dangerous even days later.

There is absolutely no reason management or your coworkers had to be at that meeting. HR should have asked you about it and simply informed them that the matter was resolved and not of further concern.
