    Is that true though? They don’t cite any studies. They just say “trust me bro”.

    And isn’t most of that porn of people that WANT to be choked etc? And not the person doing the choking?

    If i am wrong, please say so.

      LIke anything they can ban it all they want but its not going to stop people dying from autoerotic asphyxiation. Like I don’t think the sopranos thing with tonys sister is a total fantasy and something like that does not go on. kinks are going to be dangerous or not. Are they going to ban films about mountain climbing because some people die doing it?

        I could actually see the danger increasing, I haven’t researched this specifically myself, but I know that there are educational content for other kinks that which teaches safety that are very useful.

        Especially in terms of stuff like breathplay, videos like that could absolutely save lives, but would be banned under this new law.

        People will explore their kinks, regardless of what is banned or not.
