I never found strangling to be particularly up my alley, and I get that it is introducing a lot of people to a potentially very harmful sexual practise without giving them the tools to actually do it.
However fuck off Kid Harmer. Why is literally the only bit of state capacity you endorse getting into people’s bedrooms, looking at their junk or monitoring their porn? Fuck off.
Yeah. Even the “safe” way to do it is one of the most dangerous and “even done completely right, this can still just randomly kill someone[1]” kinks someone can engage in and it being mainstreamed into vanilla porn as just like a thing people spontaneously do is bad, but the solution would be like mandating warning labels with sex-positive education on how fucked this is on videos featuring real or simulated choking, not the UK’s usual “oh heavens a kink, I must send in the constables and retire to my fainting couch and pray to the depraved sex pest royals for salvation” shit.
Due to the risk of blood clots and stroke from stopping the movement of blood through the artery that’s entering the brain. It also probably causes minor brain damage every single time, even without a loss in consciousness, and as a result can cause neurological problems if that randomly happens to hit something important. ↩︎
I just wanted to elaborate with a footnote without breaking the flow of what I was saying. Checking, the only thing I had saved that might have mentioned it 404ed, although I think that may have just been a resource on doing a blood choke without threatening the wind pipe. This is just general kink community knowledge though, like the risk of nerve/joint damage from poorly placed restraints or how blunt force impacts to the abdomen and particularly around the spine or kidneys are very dangerous.
But like, stopping blood from moving is bad and has a risk of making blood clots (this is why sitting for excessively long periods of time causes a risk of DVT, as blood pools in one’s legs more than it should), and cutting off oxygen to the brain is also extremely bad. The only bit that contradicts conventional knowledge is the more recent research that even brief reductions in blood flow to the brain cause brain damage that builds up over time in the same way that minor head impacts add up (another recent discovery, since before the assumption was just that serious concussions were bad but lighter impacts didn’t cause injuries).
The article in OP does mention and link studies about the brain damage risk though, I think.
Just banning stuff basically never works and especially not for something like this thats overwhelmingly online and a lot of which is grey-market to begin with

I thought the citation would be a citation instead of you just saying it’s true :(

I do not wish this to be true
Can’t see a titty but ai can coach young kids on how to take their lives, makes sense.
