The Beautiful Kind

Dear Slut,
Can you really kill a woman from blowing air up her cunt?
Curious about deadly blow jobs

Dear Curious,
No kidding, I’ve seen this rumor floating around for years now, and have wondered that myself. (I thought about testing it out on myself last night with my guy as my lovely assistant, but hey, I’m no blow up doll.) Seems unlikely to me, but according to the Go Ask Alice site, it’s rare, but it can happen.

When air is blown or forced directly into a vagina without allowing any air to escape, an air embolism could form, which can be fatal. Women who are more at risk for this unlikely possibility are those whose pelvic vessels are enlarged due to a condition such as trauma and possibly pregnancy.

So, if a very large amount of air were to be blown or forced into their vaginal canals, it’s possible that the air could enter their bloodstream, causing a blockage in a blood vessel. As a result, some of these women may die if the embolism travels to the heart or lungs.

So do we have open blood vessels in our pussies, or what? I mean, would the amount of air needed to cause serious damage need to be forceful enough to rupture blood vessels?! Who the hell could pull that off - Kenny G? (yet ANOTHER reason not to fuck Kenny G)

So it sounds like some gentle blowing on the vulva isn’t deadly, but trying to blow your partner up like a balloon is a bad idea.

Oh geez I just found this weird image series of 18 year old girls fucking around with balloons. Now I’m super curious about this balloon fetish thing. A Looner is someone who has a balloon fetish. God I hate balloons.

And now I’ve found a clip showing a man’s balloon fetish going pathetically wrong. Someone on the site commented that David Cross should play him when the movie comes out.
