Asphyxiation is a very interesting thing to do during
sex. I'll admit, given the right circumstances, it really does heighten the experience. The key is to find someone who is as willing to try it as you are. If the partner is not into it, then it's pointless. That said, asphyxiation is not about trying to freaking kill the one you're having sex with, its about depriving your partner of
oxygen to the brain for a short period of time, right before they get off. To be honest, I never really got into the "ok, now I'm going to choke you until you almost pass out while we're having sex, and then you do it to me.." type of thing. I was curious about all this crap I kept hearing from people about "man it will heighten the
orgasm man, you will freakin love it." -- so I tried a little experiment, which I ended up kinda liking. I didn't want to get into the whole "ok choke your partner" thing, so I decided to just try it on myself during sex to see how it worked out.
The first time I did this, I laid so that my feet were up where the pillows normally are, and my head was down by the bottom of the bed. My head was 1/2 way on the bed and half way off, so that it was still supported, but if I moved a little further down I could hang my head off the edge of the bed, upside down. When I knew it was not that far off, and the pressure started to build up, I slid just a little closer to the edge, and tilted my head back, off the edge of the bed, so my view was upside down. The two big veins in my neck, on either side of my
windpipe, were affected by this - and it wasn't very long before I got that cool sensation, the one you get right before you
pass out. Well, all I can say is that it worked (and still works) for me, and I got off very nicely; I'm not sure it was due as much to the actual physical results of almost passing out, or the
excitement of doing something "semi dangerous" but, it does increase my excitement. 'course, its not necessary, and I find myself not doing it more often than not - but, its nice occasionally. heheh.
Ok, that was a freaky thing to share. I think I need to step away from the keyboard for awhile. heh.

Ok, this is really scary. I just re-read my node after posting this, and realized I did not make something specifically clear: When I did this, I was not alone. It was not a game of uno.. or a game of solitare.. I was not the only naked person in the room. Thankfully, I
was the only naked
male in the room at the time; else I would have been asking my girlfriend some serious questions instead. heheh.
