If his hands go anywhere near my neck, it’s all over. ---

I knew what you meant, I was just bustin’ ‘em, on ya’. 🙂 Come to think of it, I guess you _were_ eating him. My bad, again. That’s what happens when you sneak posts in while you’re waiting for applications to load. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Branwen \* > \*\*I’m the same way. If his hands go anywhere near my neck, it’s all over. \*\* Well, that’s two “Stay the heck away” votes. This choking thing is another variation that doesn’t do anything for me. I understand the partial asphyxiation fetish (from the outside), but the woman isn’t the one reaching orgasm, in this case, so it doesn’t apply. Yet, I’ve seen it in a number of pornos. _Are_ there women who get off on this? ---
