Recent research indicates that some young people initially learn about sexual choking through Internet memes. Thus, a qualitative content analysis was performed on 316 visual and textual memes collected from various social media websites and online searches to assess salient categories related to choking during sex. We identified nine main categories: communication, gendered dynamics, choking as dangerous, choking as sexy, sexualization of the nonsexual, shame and worry, romance/rough sex juxtaposition, choking and religious references, instructional/informational. Given that memes, through their humor, can make difficult topics more palatable and minimize potential harm in the phenomenon they depict, more concerted, synergistic effort that integrates media literacy into sexuality education programming on the potential risks that may ensue for those engaging in sexual choking is warranted.

最近的研究表明，一些年轻人最初是通过互联网模因了解性窒息的。因此，对从各种社交媒体网站和在线搜索收集的 316 个视觉和文本模因进行了定性内容分析，以评估与性窒息相关的显着类别。我们确定了九个主要类别：沟通、性别动态、窒息危险、窒息性感、非性行为的性化、羞耻和担忧、浪漫/粗暴性并置、窒息和宗教参考、指导/信息。鉴于模因通过其幽默，可以使困难的话题变得更容易接受，并最大限度地减少它们所描述的现象中的潜在危害，更加协调一致，
