What is Breath Play?

Breath play is a type of kink or fetish that involves choking or limiting someone’s breathing for sexual pleasure. It can be done alone or with a partner, and can involve a variety of techniques and tools.

Types of Breath Play

1. Strangulation

Strangulation is a type of breath play that involves applying pressure to the neck in order to restrict airflow. This can be done with the hands, a belt, a rope, or other tools. It is important to be aware of the risks involved with strangulation, as it can be very dangerous and potentially deadly.

2. Suffocation

Suffocation is a type of breath play that involves cutting off the air supply to the mouth and nose. This can be done with a plastic bag, a gas mask, or other tools. Suffocation can be very dangerous and should only be done under controlled circumstances with proper safety precautions.

3. Breath Control

Breath control is a type of breath play that involves controlling the rate and depth of breathing. This can be done with the hands, a mask, or other tools. It is important to be aware of the risks involved with breath control, as it can lead to hypoxia or other medical issues.

Risks and Safety Precautions

Breath play can be very dangerous and should only be done under controlled circumstances with proper safety precautions. It is important to communicate with your partner and establish safe words or signals in case of an emergency.

Never attempt breath play while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, as this can impair your judgment and increase the risk of injury or death.

It is also important to be aware of the risks involved with each specific type of breath play, and to take appropriate safety measures. For example, if using a rope for strangulation, make sure it is not too tight and that the person being choked can still breathe through their nose.

Always have a plan in case of an emergency, and be prepared to stop the activity if necessary.

Conclusion

Breath play can be a thrilling and exciting kink, but it is important to be aware of the risks involved and to take proper safety precautions. Communication with your partner is key, and it is important to establish safe words or signals in case of an emergency. With the right preparation and safety measures, breath play can be a safe and enjoyable experience.
