Of course typing the domain name is popular to return to your site and those users are the most valuable compared with the 95% who will never return to your site! But it depends on what level you're operating at. If you site is never gonna see more than a trickle of traffic, you may not get more than a tiny trickle of repeat traffic. If you content is really sticky and people need to come back, they'll type in your domain name.

seems like most people find sites through links so seeing a site named "KinkyBDSMsexTube" they will know exactly what the site is about.

I disagree because anywhere your site shows up, usually a description will be appended.
KTube - THE place in town for kinky, bdsm, sex and all things freaky!
Even in google there'll be a description and title. And if its just a text link, you can use anchor text to describe content.

on the flip side seeing just "KTube" might draw curiosity and you might get more non-niche clicks.

I don't think that's gonna be a big upside but these days if you're putting a lot into something, I would always go short, easy to type and easy to remember. Anyone can remember a 5 letter dot com and they are plentiful. Even KinkyTube.com is very easy to remember.
Whatever you do, think carefully because once you're building a site on it there's no going back and switching domains is always a headache and causes losses. If you have the choices, feel free to post them and i'll give you my feedback free of any charge (I usually charge $900 per hour so its good value offer for you).
