If they could reasonably argue that it were a safe practice, of course I would. Why wouldn't I? Except that argument can't be reasonably made. But it can be made for limited levels of sexual choking play. I specifically asked:
"But does it cause more damage than smoking? Alcohol? Cannabis in young people?"
And without a quantitative answer to this, the entire discussion is hot air and prejudice.
And I cannot help but noting that your way of argument is literally item #1 of Eristic Dialectic: The Extension. These methods are neither productive nor welcome.
