Just like with clothing and food, there are trends in sex, too! Every once in a while, a new trend pops up in most people’s bedrooms, which changes what is seen as normal. Recent studies have found that more young adults have been experimenting with sexual choking, and they’re liking it. It has gained a lot of popularity. Keep on reading to discover why and how to try it out for yourself.
More young adults like sexual choking
In a recent study, experts discovered that there is a new sexual trend among young adults. Sexual choking has seen a sharp rise, with nearly two-thirds of college-aged women and one in four men reporting experience with it. These people discovered that they find the lack of oxygen can lead to a feeling of euphoria or higher sexual pleasure!
Even though sexual choking might be a trend that is becoming normalized, we do have to keep ourselves informed of the dangers that come with it. Experts warn of serious health risks, including potential strokes, brain injury, and accidental fatalities if people act in a careless manner. So, if you’re trying it out or if you’re already doing it with your partner, make sure you’re not going too far!
Where does the new Sexual Trend come from?
Experts think that the new trend and popularity of choking sexually comes from unlimited access to porn. Other erotic content online will also play a role. With platforms like OnlyFans and Pornhub actively promoting people choking their partners while having sex, the idea will be subconsciously implanted in these young adults, and when they start trying it out, they figure out that they’re actually quite into it. This is how it became a mainstream act and is now considered to be normal! For the men, it often makes them feel like they’re more in control of sexual pleasure.
However, it is never okay to do this out of nowhere to your partner. Make sure that you’re talking about it and ask permission before engaging in it. You can’t just assume your partner is okay with it, as it can lead to unwanted and unsafe sexual experiences. Since you’re cutting off their oxygen circulation, you’ll have to be extra safe. Because if you go too far, it can lead to some bad repercussions. Experts stress the need for open conversations about consent. In addition you’d have to use safer practices, and alternative ways to explore dominance and submission without risk.
