To think women who enjoy choking during sex should know the risks?

[ImTheGoat]

In a different thread the topic of choking during sex has come up repeatedly. Some women say they enjoy it and it's none of anyone else's business. Others have said it gives abusive men an excuse to hide behind if and when they murder their partners- see here for some tragic stories but bear in mind they're upsetting https://wecantconsenttothis.uk/

My own point of view is that choking during sex is dangerous. Study after study have pointed out that it can cause death or lead to brain damage. It's easy to find this information online but here's an article about it https://www.webmd.com/sex/what-is-sexual-asphyxiation I do think people should be able to do what they want sexually if it isn't hurting anyone. But I also think people should be aware of the risks. In the other thread people who raised any objection to choking during sex were called "pearl clutchers" or "sex police." AIBU to think no, knock yourself out if that's what you want to do but at least acknowledge it isn't a safe sexual activity?

It is not just you that has posted on this thread. There are women (presumably although you never know on the internet) that have said that we shouldn't kink-shame.

Where did I say that men attacking women is women's responsibility?

All these threads though go exactly this way. Women do try and warn other women about how dangerous the risks are, and then another woman comes on and says: oh you're so vanilla; don't kink-shame me; it's not all men who are dangerous etc.

Given that the law is not currently sure of protecting us and we're not currently in a situation where we can be protected by men not using these kinks against us, it's not massive sacrifice to make to not get involved in a sex act that's inherently dangerous or at least not defend it on the internet. I'm not saying women shouldn't go out at night or have a few drinks here FFS.

The more women defend it, the more mainstream it will become. Lots of women who have no interest in it have said how men have done it because they've 'heard women like it'. If women keep advertising that then this will become a growing issue.

'We Can't Consent to This"
Charlotte Teeling's story was chilling. Her killer had 171 previous convictions for violence exclusively against women. Why was he running free?

It's common sense that is potentially lethal hazard element to this like dicing with Russian Rullette
