If you haven’t visited maymay’s blog I suggest you hurry over. Here’s part of an entry he wrote on breath manipulation and tease:
If I’m really close to cumming, though, I often don’t breathe, and in fact hold my breath nearly involuntarily. It takes a lot of effort to try and breathe normally in such situations. Once, as I was being stroked teasingly, she told me to remain still and keep taking deep breathes. This felt wonderful, and was exceptionally arousing. However, in very much the same that some people tell you to smile (even if you’re faking) in order to be happy, this had the effect of keeping me distant from an orgasm for a surprisingly long time.
On the other hand, breathing deeply often makes an orgasm feel better, more full-bodied. I remember reading that this is traditional sex advice often given to women who feel anorgasmic. This is interesting to play with as well. What if a domme forced a breathing pattern coupled with orgasm or with the teasing? This is a logical leap for me since breath play is arousing on its own.
Breathing as a sexual teasing technique

Never liked an adult blog before. But this post caught my attention. I also hold breath when I have difficulty cumming or want to cum fast. I have never researched this in the internet but have always thought it to be bad for health (blood pressure, muscle tension etc.).
Is this that bad as I think it is? Have you, Polyfetishist (I love your nick!) or any other readers here experienced any negative side to the breath holding when cumming?
In my head, I’ve sometimes compared it to autoerotic asphyxiation (never tried AEA that actually myself). Do you agree? Or is it two completely different things?
Great blog! I like that it’s not just a sales tool like most adult.
Will check back soon
thanks
Thanks for the kind words on my writing.
Unfortunately, I don’t have all the health and medical information I would really want to play with this more seriously, although I have had some scenes that invovled a very direct correlation to breath play and arousal. It was never really explicitly linked in our minds, though, but that is soemthing that I’d love to do more often.
Cheers,
