PSA: Please teach your partner how to choke properly if you’re into that kind of thing.
The point of choking is not to crush the oesophagus, but rather to put light pressure on the carotid arteries to stop oxygen circulation to the brain. So tops, please create a V shape with your hands, which allows the fleshy part of the palm to rest against the oesophagus without causing any obstruction to the windpipe, and press down on the arteries. It’s not about stopping your bottom from breathing completely, but making them lightheaded.
This is very, very important!
Also, please don’t attempt any choking whilst under the influence because your better judgement may be impaired and you can cause some serious damage.
Choking is serious business, if you’re going to engage in it, please be sure to practise it properly and in a safe manner!
