Um, not sure how things are on Lemmy, but I am not a robot and never meant to offend other people here. I'm only speaking from my own brief experience.

That guy was a sweetheart in other ways, but he was completely ignorant of the risks choking could impose. For him, consent on intimacy meant also consent on choking, since he considered it a part of it.

And yes, this was a major reason why this relationships lasted for a very short time. We spoke about it and I hope he understood the point. It was over a decade ago, and I always thought that the guy lacked education / understanding, not conscience.

Also, "on TV" obviously meant porn. I quoted the man.
