I think at least some of the hyphens are supposed to indicate that the encased words are being stressed, but they should really just be using italics for that.Whoever does the writing for this needs to seriously take it easy with the punctuation.
"She's got a real kink for rough-and-tumble sex." (Funny enough, hyphenating rough-and-tumble is the one piece of punctuation that would be valid and the writer actually left it out.)
Not, "She's got (pause) a real kink (pause) for (pause) rough and tumble sex."
Finally, if the writer wants to use dashes as punctuation (not my cup of tea, but a stylistic choice) they should be using em-dashes, not hyphens.

I mean this is just hilariously bad.

"She's got a real kink for rough and tumble sex. A bit of light choking, spanking - that kind of thing."
"The trick is to time your finger so that it enters just as she climaxes. It's amazing! She screams her head off in pleasure."
See? The italics read pretty well. Using hyphens for that is just painful, though.
