In this thread: a lot of chocking
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I suppose I would file this one under massive sex education failure, if youths are having to learn about sex from porn there's already a problem.
While im not cool with making playacting illegal I would be very happy for it to not be so fucking common in the vids. Can we stop with the little slaps to. I think the problem with a lot of kinks that don't completely drive the person away. Am I still gonna watch the porn. Well yeah, probably, but I would prefer it without it. Whats funny is seeing the same porn videos with differen titles. various incest scenarios and then something else.
Am I still gonna watch the porn. Well yeah, probably
You're the problem then, stop giving those videos views.
Well yeah. I said the play acting was not enough to turn people away. Well especially since you don't know till liek half way through.
I've seen this story everywhere but can't ever find the actual law.
Their have been a lock down on a lot of explicit content online but no one thought it was worth fighting for them, know they're trying to ban videos depicting choking. Idk seems like karma
Choking cause permanent brain damage period. MRI scans prove that the brain has to literally rewire itself do to massive cell death.
Furthermore, this is a one way street with the vast majority being males choking women. Over 58% percent of undergraduate women report a choking incident during sex.
Only 8% of men report choking during sex. If this is such a "universal" fetish why is it so one sided. This is because it isn't. Choking is rarely consensual and even if it is it is extremely damaging to the human mind.
That paper isn't quite as compelling as I'd hoped it would be for you conclusions. It's good research, but I'd really like to see a larger sample size, differentiation as to whether people are choked to the point of passing out, and more cognitive tests (because this paper didn't see any decrease in ability).
For sure, but it is not new knowledge that brain cells are very oxygen dependent. Even brief lapses of oxygen to the brain causes cell death.
