New research finds that nearly one-third of young Australians are involved in a sexual act that can “from fun to fatal” in seconds.
Among the more than 54,000 people who participated in the Greater Australia debate earlier this year, this is a broad, 50-question survey of news.com.au, which found everything Australians really think of, from the cost of living and housing to electric cars to electric cars, and the drones in supermarkets – in supermarkets – 30% of 18 to 29-year-olds engaged in blackmail during sex.
They are also the highest (3.31%) generation without consent.
Defined as when a person’s breathing is blocked or restricted by his hands, other body parts or bonds on his neck, the behavior is often referred to as “suffocation”, during sex, police, doctors and researchers say.
While this practice is not new, Gen Z’s growing use of it as part of a “normal” gender has become a central issue for experts.
As we agree with our consent founder Chanel Contos asked in her National News Club address: “Is this an important sign that someone who wants to kill you becomes commonplace in the bedroom?”
First, Professor Heather Douglas of the University of Melbourne told News.com.au: “I think we can blame online porn and the extraordinary accessibility shared on the internet” to quickly rise.
In a survey led by Douglas, 4700 to 35, porn was the primary source of information or descriptions of participants exposed to this custom (61.3%) because of fear of being considered “vanilla”, movies (40.3%), friends (31.9%), social media (31.3%), social media (31.3%), infiltrating the number of people and spreading in a timely manner 29. percentage).
Douglas’s findings show two things, Jackie McMillan, senior program officer for Women’s Health in NSW, told news.com.au: “It’s the idea of being safe, and the idea that all friends are doing it.”
“When more people are introduced to sexual behavior, they may also continue to try with their future partners, which may lead to an increase in prevalence,” McMillan said.
“When people think that sexual asphyxiation is normal and routine, it may be decoupled from the health and safety risks associated with it and can reduce the motivation of each sexual participant to obtain informed, affirmative and specific consent before attempting to do so.”
Male Great Australian Debate Respondents were most likely to be curious about choking during sexual intercourse (4.45%), while less than 2% of women (1.84%) said they had any desire to participate.
Of those who engage in choking during sexual acts, 12.5% said they have obtained permission, while 2.3% said they do not. Non-binary Australians (8.15%) were most likely to be suffocated without consent, followed by women (4.69%) and less than 1% for men.
Regardless of consent or lack of consent, the hazards and risks associated with ransomware are well documented: from direct – bruises or swelling to the neck, blurred vision, dizziness or dizziness, difficulty swallowing, difficulty swallowing to long-term.
Experts are most concerned about brain damage, which can take days, weeks, or even years to show. No matter how briefly, limiting the blood flowing to the brain can cause permanent damage, such as cognitive impairment or stroke.
Douglas noted that over a month compared people strangled during three to four times to those who had never been strangled.
“People who were strangled showed brain damage,” she said.
“They are slow to solve problems, have more memory problems, and even the structure of the brain looks different.”
Macmillan said there is growing evidence that, like the cumulative harm to repetitive head injuries to football players and boxers, hypoxic/hypoxic brain injury in sexual chopharynx adds up and can lead to long-term cognitive problems.
Douglas said there is a “thin line” between the amount of pressure applied during fatal and non-fatal strangulation.
Even when applied to someone’s throat, the “relatively low” power of opening a can of soft drink is enough to cause subconscious and risk brain damage.
She continued that people strangled during sexual acts are unlikely to be “stress use experts” – a survey of 169 Australian university students published last year found that it was most considered risk-free.
“The schedule between pleasure and fatal sexual asphyxiation is measured in seconds rather than minutes,” McMillan said.
“It can go from fun to very horrible and deadly rapid changes. If you also send drugs or alcohol into the mixture, you can imagine that the faster things will go wrong.”
McMillan pointed out that sexual asphyxiation also has “legal risks”.
Under the NSW law, “If you cause serious injury or another person’s death, you cannot protect you…even if you use hazardous technologies such as “medium” stress and communication”.
“If you’re going to continue (engage in) sexual asphyxiation – it’s totally your privilege – we say it’s a good idea to make something that is occasionally made instead of part of your “daily” or regular sexual behavior,” McMillan said, referring to NSW’s online learning center without leaving any marks. ”
While the program emphasizes that there is no risk-free way to engage in the behavior, it provides people with “information about low-risk activities, including keeping breathing (so you can let go when you are horrified) and simulate choking (performance) rather than actually limiting someone’s air or blood to the brain,” McMillan said.
“No one wants to give or suffer brain damage during sex,” she added.
Given the threat to the brains of people posed by blackmail, Douglas said: “We need to separate (IT) from other entanglements.”
“Helping people understand these risks is key,” she said.
