The survey begins with the premise that I am at a party, and continues to assert that this is true.

I do not got to parties, so right from the outset I have the impossible task of fitting my reality into the reference frame of the questions. I would not "be" anything (where people can see me, or where people cannot see me) because I wouldn't be there, and I wouldn't be doing any of the things described. If I were the person choking/being choked or whatever, then yes it would be meaningful to select whether I would be conducting this fetish openly or in private. But if I do not have this fetish, and I don't party, then there's no meaningful option to choose, because none of them are applicable.

Surveys might make you cute little charts, but they are absolutely hopeless at capturing real information; they are a tool for brain-dead management whose own fetish is charts they cannot comprehend.

My own unique personality and experience would be reduced to some dots on a graph, and due to the impossibility of fitting my reality into the options available, my data would be completely open to misinterpretation because I can't express my reality unambiguously.

If there's something you really want to know, then you just need to come out and ask it.

research study

I found this forum via a web search for unconventional sexual interests, have read the rules, and believe that this request falls under the "request for information" category of permitted posts:

One of my students, Will Simpson, is conducting a research study on the relationship between diverse sexual interests and certain personality traits. Responses are entirely anonymous and no information will be saved that could be used to deduce respondents' identities or specific locations. We are genuinely interested in what you think, and hope that the results of this work, when published in the psychological literature and publicised to counsellors and to the general public, would be of use in the context of relationship counselling and also to members of the public in understanding more about how unconventional sexual interests arise and function.

If you have about half an hour to spare and might be interested in participating, please go to https://NTUpsychology.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1ZIeVRBwFFhItCJ to read further details. We thank you very much for your kind consideration.

We would be happy to post in this forum- if deemed appropriate- a summary and theoretical analysis of the results, which should be available later this year.

Kind regards
