It baffles me. Why would anyone want their partner to pretend to murder them during sex? Strangulation is mimicking the act of killing someone.

Yeah, it is. I've heard all the "Asphyxiation heightens orgasm" arguments and I'm like "Well, no, that's your adrenals kicking into overdrive because your brain thinks you're being killed." Which has me wondering if maybe a lot of these fetishes are actually re-traumatizing and self-harm compulsions.
