AIBU to think everyone does what Betsy and Dylan did?

the Betsy and Dylan storyline in Corrie- is “everyone” really doing this? Or am I just too sheltered?

Nope. No strangulation, no slapping, no hair pulling, no anal either for that matter.

35 year relationship, still shagging each other very happily.

No, not everyone is doing it. And it’s hugely dangerous to imply that they are because it normalises it.

Ah, googled it - breath play bullshittery.
I guessed right.
YABU I hope.
Most like vanilla sex and not being strangled during it.

Are you going to enlighten us about whatever this Betsy and Dylan did?

Apologies. Strangulation while having sex. Apparently everyone is doing it. In this storyline it caused a stroke.

Is this the asphyxiation story line ? I’m a PSHE lead and it’s included in the new statutory RSE curriculum due to the rise in young people doing this and not understanding the dangers
