PSA: Please teach your partner how to choke properly if you’re into that kind of thing.

The point of choking is not to crush the oesophagus, but rather to put light pressure on the carotid arteries to stop oxygen circulation to the brain. So tops, please create a V shape with your hands, which allows the fleshy part of the palm to rest against the oesophagus without causing any obstruction to the windpipe, and press down on the arteries. It’s not about stopping your bottom from breathing completely, but making them lightheaded.

This is very, very important!

Also, please don’t attempt any choking whilst under the influence because your better judgement may be impaired and you can cause some serious damage.

Choking is serious business, if you’re going to engage in it, please be sure to practise it properly and in a safe manner!

Important read.

Like you’re actually going to be thinking about this while you’re fucking someone lmao just dont joke people even if you’re having sex with them

I hate the modern world now

I thought this was going to be about thyroids or some other medical issue not choking your partner because you can’t get an erection.

You can’t choke someone safely. Even weak choking can cause problems or even kill.

I hate bdsmers.

‘Please teach your partner how to choke properly if you’re into that kind of thing.

Most strangulation deaths are from putting pressure on the carotid artery. Depriving the brain of oxygen is one of the most dangerous things you can do. There is no such thing as a safe choke.

‘Choking is serious business, if you’re going to engage in it, please be sure to practise it properly and in a safe manner!’

No. Don’t do it unless you’re prepared to kill someone. Complications from strangulation can kill the person even days after the fact. What’s more, damage done by depriving the brain of oxygen is cumulative. So even if you’ve done it “safely” several times, you are actually suffering some brain damage. Stop spreading this misinformation that choking can ever be safe. You are contributing to people (let’s be real: it’s mostly women) being killed by their partners (mostly men). Stop.

Women who are choked by their abusers are almost 10 times more likely to be murdered by them. https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/jr000250e.pdf
