I was @smarmypenguin. My old account got hacked. I'm pretty much a contradiction in everything. My reading comprehension sucks.

Her explanation isn't clear and it's based on the ludicrous recent redefinition of 'strangulation'. Strangulation and sexual choking are not the same thing and never have been.
There can be some overlap, but quoting stats about violent abuse and conflating it with sex is stupid

Can't wait to see UK citizens have to drain their dwindling savings in a country in economic freefall to defend themselves in courts to a bunch of elderly powdered wig dickheads of a terrible UK court system because someone thought they were getting their ass ate too vigorously

Ok, I think I've gotten everything most likely to be flagged by the new laws. I've probably over policed myself but better that than risk 5 years in jail.

So the rule now is that if anyone ever dies doing something the government has to ban it? Well get ready to never be allowed to leave your house again girl. Becuase this is fucking stupid

People need to stop putting up with this paternalistic and insanely risk adverse culture.
This idea that every risk should be regulated against is laughably impractical, draconian, morally repugnant and absurd. Life has risks, adults should be able to assess and make judgements for themselves. The government is supposed to be a servent to the people, not to lord over them.
Just because you might not personally like something, find it morally objectionable or has negative eternalities doesn't mean that it needs to be or even should be prohibitited. This is not about approving of everything. It is recognising that adults have different values and risk levels. This should not be disregarded so liberally.
You do not have to like something to believe that other adults should be free to engage in it. There is a big difference.
The UK might as well ban:
- Alcohol — Group 1 carcinogen. Causes 7 cancers (breast, bowel, mouth, throat, oesophagus, liver). ~10,500 alcohol-specific deaths/year in the UK; the real toll including cancers is far higher.
- Football — Former Scottish pros 3.5× more likely to die of neurodegenerative disease (Glasgow FIELD study). Defenders ~5×. Goalkeepers (who rarely head) same as the general population. Plus yesterday’s fatal collision.
- Tobacco — Still ~80,000 deaths a year in the UK. Causes ~1 in 5 cancer deaths.
- Nightclubs / live music — UK dance floors routinely hit 95–110 dB. Safe exposure at those levels is minutes, not hours. Regular clubbing linked to permanent hearing damage and tinnitus.
- Traditional British food — 82% of UK adults exceed saturated fat guidelines (NDNS). High-fat diets help drive the UK’s leading killer: heart disease.
But no. Watching Facesitting is dangeous and needs banning and jailtime. 😱
