Erotic Asphyxiation

[Anders86]

I have been very lucky finding a partner who have a great interest in Peat's work. We have great sex with wide variety, one of them being erotic asphyxiation. My question is how healthy, safe or dangerous could this be? Sometimes we do pass out, feeling tingly with a great muscle relaxing effect. I know air restriction is healthy, in a Buetkyo way. But choking also restricts blood flow to brain and I'm a bit sceptic, especially related to frequency.

I would also like to add that I have trained martial arts for decades and have good controll over this situation.

It is all fun and games, but is it safe?

raw carrot salad is safer

 

[ecstatichamster]

doesn't sound safe to me.

If you have to ask...

I suggest you take a break from all sexual activity including porn and masturbation until safer and more vanilla forms of sexual expression are enough to get you off.

Wait you're telling me it's not healthy to dress up as Batman and choke yourself while masturbating to erotic magazines?

Add some CO2 gas to the mix why don’t you......... you will be bordering on nirvana.....

I jest. DO NOT!

Be safe man. As “good” as it may feel, you are flirting death and at the end of the day, Is it really worth it ???

what’s wrong with good old fashioned intercourse? I’m quite content with just a woman’s body and presence... That’s just me though and to each, their own...

I didnt expect such answers. I said great variety, this is one of many, just exploring and low frequency. Some of these posts are overly exaggerated.

It's those that related that felt uncomfortable enough to need to release the pressure with humor, otherwise it wouldn't even register.

In your case it's literally..

...with wide variety, one of them being erotic asphyxiation....It is all fun and games, but is it safe?

ONLY if you avoid PUFA as much as possible, and opt for COCONUT OIL if it suits your fancy!! EVERYTHING is "Peaty" if ya just avoid the PUFA, lol!!

For a lot of species sex is the peak of their life time followed by rapid death, like in fish & insects.
Choking during sex can trigger this archaic experience in women.
I had some girl friends who wanted to be choked during sex, it's quite common.

Researchers claim that sex & aggression is controled by the same neural pathways.
There’s a neurological explanation for the link between sex and violence

David Lynch's & Paul Verhoeven's movies often turn around the subject of Sex=Death

I wouldn't choke out a woman.
If you are attracted to choking out you should better pause,
the slippery slope is really short & fatal in this one.
Don't follow a woman's lead.

Enjoy!

You should ask this guy-

Are they really? In your original post, you even stated that "sometimes we do pass out." What you are doing sounds INSANELY dangerous to me, especially considering that you are losing consciousness doing an activity that can easily lead to coma or death.

Some say this is actually what Robin Williams died of. Not suicide.

Stupid question. People do die by doing this. So is it safe? No. Why are you asking a ray peat forum if sex and choking is safe in the first place? Did you expect us to say yes it’s very peaty. There’s other forums you can go to ask these questions. Like the dark webb. You probably find people with similair interest. But if you ask any person who doesn’t do it or any doctor if its safe I tell you no one will tell you that it is safe. And like someone said how did you escalate to enjoying that kinda stuff? The big problem is the fact that people want weirder and more intensity. That’s why the people who do this usually end up doing other different machochistic activities. Im not saying this will happen to you but in a lot of famous cases where erotic asphyxation you can see other weird sexual activities involved aswell. Maybe you do need to rethink the situation and go back to vanilla stuff but I doubt you’re willing to do that.

These sort of response is why people seek doing kinky stuff outside of the relationship when the partner senses that the other will condemn. It's also why people repress their desires for fear of being shamed.

But I agree with others that is commenting that it isn't safe, and I don't think that our dear fish would approve this practice either. Favoring other activities such as abusing children is preferable.

- Erotic asphyxiation - Wikipedia

"Historically, the practice of autoerotic asphyxiation has been documented since the early 17th century. It was first used as a treatment for erectile dysfunction. The idea for this most likely came from subjects who were executed by hanging. Observers at public hangings noted that male victims developed an erection, sometimes remaining after death (a death erection), and occasionally ejaculated when being hanged. However, post-mortem ejaculation occurs in hanging victims after death because of disseminated muscle relaxation; this is a different mechanism from that sought by autoerotic asphyxiation practitioners."​

If you insist on doing it, I would keep a neuron counter next to you to control how many you're losing on each session.

Why not just stick to non-choking rough sex. At least you cant kill brain cells or pass out pulling hair. Its all fun and games until one of you actually gets brain damage caused by hypoxia or end up dead.
