Sexual asphyxiophilia (Koczwarism) in women and the biological phenomenon of female ejaculation.
Life threatening eroticizing behavior, asphyxiophilia (sexual asphyxia) is practiced in women, as in men, in order to heighten sexual excitement and to achieve orgasm, which is in some women accompanied by expulsions of fluid (ejaculation) from the urethra. The relatively easily achieved orgasm induced by the mechanism of asphyxia is hypothesized to be the common reason for repetitive deviant asphyxiophilic behavior. Moreover, in women of the ejaculatory type (female ejaculators), the desire to induce ejaculatory orgasm by asphyxia may also come into play as this kind of orgasm is usually assessed as sensation of greater delight than orgasm without ejaculation.
