Possibly so. But, as I said in my response to neonchameleon above, I thought it was better to be on the safe side.
I think squick can cover both of those, though, in any case; for example, some people might think that eating pickled pigs feet or brains (not human!) with capers is disgusting, but that doesn't mean that reading about someone having had that for dinner will squick them. Whereas something like S&M isn't disgusting (depending on the content, at least), but it most assuredly squicks some people.
