I’m not a fan of breathplay via throttling. It seems way too dangerous. There are all sorts of delicate tubes in the neck and it seems impossible to judge precisely what is being squeezed and by how much. I love breathplay in general, just not via this route. However, simply gripping the throat is very hot. The potential threat and danger is a great way to spike your adrenalin. It’s not surprising there are so many aphorisms based on going for, grabbing, or offering the throat. The ribs and the skull protect a lot of the critical organs, but the throat is uniquely vulnerable and therefore exciting.
I found this on the Geek Domme tumblr. It’s originally from the Divine Bitches site.
