A survey of 4,702 Australians aged 18-35 found that more than half had engaged in consensual strangulation during sex. This alarming statistic has catalyzed a new campaign aimed at educating young people about the risks of strangulation. Additionally, it underscores the broader issue of domestic abuse and the complexities of consent, particularly in light of how pornography influences behavior. While these findings highlight serious concerns, the resulting panic has focused more on policing online content than on improving sex education, which is inconsistent across different educational institutions in Australia.
