erotic asphyxiation

intentional restriction of oxygen to the brain for sexual arousal

Erotic asphyxiation is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening sexual practice in which individuals intentionally restrict their own or their partner's airflow or oxygen intake to achieve a euphoric high, altered consciousness, and increased sexual arousal. This can be achieved through various methods such as choking, suffocation, strangulation using ropes, belts, or other restraints, or by the partial or complete obstruction of the nose or mouth. It should be noted that this activity carries significant risks including unconsciousness, loss of consciousness, brain damage, organ failure, and death. Erotic asphyxiation is often associated with other activities like bondage, choking, and other forms of consensual non-consensual play. It is important to note that consent is not valid when one party has impaired or completely lost consciousness due to the actions of another.
