Erotic Asphyxiation seems to have been the driving force behind David Carradine's death. Do you engage in it? Have you tried it? And would you try it? All while knowing that it could kill you?

Not interested in it, not worth the trouble it could cause

I really enjoy erotic asphyxiation (breath play) with my partner and we don't do it nearly as often as I'd like.

I'm on the "never auto erotic asphyxiation" bus because it is, to me, exponentially more dangerous than with a partner.

Autoerotic is asking for trouble. IF your going to do any kind of breath play, do it with someone you trust and be careful. Make sure you have a safe word and safety precautions

Wow! I've heard the word before, but I never, ever knew that's what it was! Whoa! That is just outrageous. It sounds to me like this is just taking things way too far! It's not worth dying and leaving behind loved ones, ever! I couldn't ever do that to my kids and partner and family. Wow! I'm so shocked to have learned this. Surely it cannot be worth it? I think it sounds scary as hell and just wow!

I wouldn't do it. When I was younger, I did crazy things like huffing and passing out, but always with a friend. We were'nt having any kind of sex though. We just did it as a fun thing when we got high. It was scary and one of my girlfriends was out for a very long time and she could've easily died from it. It was the most unbelievable thing I've ever experienced though. I had no idea people done this as a sex thing. I still have old photos of my girlfriends passed out on the ground after taking each other's breath. We didn't know the danger of that at the time, but being more mature and having people to care for and responsibilities, I would never risk taking away from the kids just to get off. I would never risk my mother and father losing me in such a way.

I love being choked by my DADDY the main of the 2 Doms who I serve at different times. He's really careful about how he does it and what he did it with, if he couldn't reach my throat properly then I obbligingly moved my head so he could get a better hold of it.

NEVER! I have a 'thing' about hands on my neck left over from a very unfortunate childhood. But I honestly think even if I didn't, I would never try this. Just too dangerous and scary.

I wouldn't try any breath play just cause it doesn't sound exciting and the dangers are too much for me...

It's just not my thing. It would be too easy for someone to get carried away - I value my life too much.
I don't trust easily at the best of times. And as much as I love giving a Master control, control over my air life support just doesn't do much for me.

I have no interest in trying it and even if I did I would probably worry so much about what might go wrong that I wouldn't be able to enjoy myself anyway.

Eh, it's not all that attractive to me. Plus, as a child, I nearly drowned many times, so I'm sure that factors into my decision.

We've tried it and enjoy it as a nice change of pace. Would never do it during masturbation though.

I've not tried it. Mainly because I've too few brain cells already. I can't risk losing more.

Not something I am in to

The autoerotic kind is too dangerous.

As opposed to the lethal, aggressive kind?

Not autoerotic, I've tried it with a partner though. Autoerotic is when you do it to yourself, no?

It was alright. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I think I like the idea and fantasy of being choked more than the actual sensation. I like to pretend

I have zero interest in this kind of thing.

I hate it enough when my nose is slightly stuffy - difficulty breathing is one of the most uncomfortable things I can think of outside of outright pain - so I just can't understand the draw of breath play. Aside from the chance of death and the overall discomfort, I'd rather not lose any brain cells that way, either. I know it's supposed to heighten sexual arousal/ecstasy, but I just don't feel it's worth it.

I do hope that those of you who do practice erotic asphyxiation with your partners take every possible precaution. I can't see autoerotic breath play being safe in any way - if something goes wrong, you're screwed and that's it.

I would not try that - i dont know and dont understand how you can enjoy such thing

Autoerotic, never ever. I love breath play with my partner, though

I don't think I'd be able to try that -- I'm too scared to die!

Ah, not for me, Oxygen is far more important than sex. This is way to dangerous, there are countless other ways of enjoying sex.

I don't know who that David person is, but yes, I have, I do and I love it! I, however, would NEVER do it without a trusting partner present.

Meh.. sounds kind of weird to me.

Of course, to each their own; everybody's different.. also something about floating boats.

Anyway, not for me.

I always have my husband around or a play partner to make sure everything is ok.
