Choking Kink
A kink where one partner places their hands around the other's throat during sex or foreplay, using pressure to intensify arousal and create a feeling of vulnerability and control.
Why readers love it
Readers are drawn to the raw power exchange and the visceral sense of danger mixed with trust, where the submissive partner surrenders completely and the dominant partner holds ultimate control in a moment of intense connection.

Worth knowing: This practice carries serious physical risks; always use a clear safeword, avoid actual airway restriction or pressure on the front of the neck, and never engage while solo or impaired.
