Has made me want to weep. What young women have to put up with now, under the guise of it being mainstream, cool and expected, really does make me want to cry. My daughter is 17, not yet sexually active, but I guess it won't be long before she is - what kind of a world are we sending our girls into, where being strangled, with all the risks that entails, is seen as normal?

You literally are judging, with your tone and words, not to mention the untruths and exaggerations. As other women here have told you, plenty of people can reach an orgasm without going anywhere near the clitoris, and millions of women happily and regularly reach orgasm from anal stimulation, either penetrative or otherwise.

You can't, or possibly don't because of your cultural prejudices, but you should recognise those for what they are, opinions, not facts.

Did you read the article in the Guardian that SummersSoon posted? Here is her link, have a look. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/society/2022/aug/11/rise-in-popularity-of-anal-sex-has-led-to-health-problems-for-women
Anal sex is seriously dangerous for women. I am being objective, not judgmental. And you are making assumptions about my cultural background and sex life that are unwarranted - because you do not know me. Please don't do that.

Rise in popularity of anal sex has led to health problems for women

Incontinence, bleeding and STIs among the consequences, say two surgeons, who want doctors to have open chats with patients on the topic

"anal sex is pointless (as well as dangerous) for women. There are no pleasure sensors in the anus"

This is you being judgemental, this is you being wrong. Millions of women reach orgasm using nothing but their butt.

@DrBlackbird "Just what the hell are we doing to our teens and young adults, and I include boys and girls here, leading them to believe it’s ‘normal’ or healthy to choke or be choked etc. when it is just not."

We have allowed the pornographers to write the narrative for modern sex life. Pornographers are not nice people who indulge in mutual respect/consent/sharing a good time. They have to outdo one another in producing nasty stuff, with elements of dominance and submissiveness to compensate for the control over women that men have lost in day to day life. Humiliate. Degrade. Demean. Restores a sense of masculinity to a certain type of man and teenage boys.

Did you read the article SummersSoon posted? It clearly sets out the dangers of anal sex for women.
