This SafeBAE resource uses research, visual comparisons, and an interactive timeline to explain the risks of sexual strangulation and why prevention needs to start early.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-23 issue.
For
Educators and adults discussing sexual strangulation with teens
Worth noticing
Its force table puts carotid-artery closure at 11 lb—55% of the force to open the pictured can—and explicitly says these figures are not safe limits.

Field notes

The page combines reported experiences, sources of first exposure, and force comparisons with citations to named studies. Its adolescent figures cite a 2026 study of 180 sexually experienced teens, while the older age groups draw on the same national survey. A separate university-student finding allows respondents to name multiple sources, a limitation the page makes explicit.
