This is why people should have safe words. And don’t consent to anything you aren’t comfortable with.
If you don’t know if you are comfortable with something and want to explore it, have that conversation with your partner. Make it clear that would like to explore the act but that if you don’t like it or are uncomfortable with it you will let them know and you expect them to respect that decision and that will be the end of the discussion. No pleading, begging, guilting and/or arguing.
And possibly the most neglected fact, you have the right to withdrawal consent.
Don’t consent to anything that is not your affirmative idea and desire just to “indulge” a man. That’s not actually consent.

It is not pretend if you are actually causing pain to another person, even if you say it is "consensual".
Boxing, wrestling, tackling, football cause pain with significant risks of long term damage, and these are accepted forms of entertainment.
What does this have to do with OP being hurt by her DH? It was not pretend to her at that point.
Boxing and football are not pretend either. Doesn't stop most of the husbands of these hypocrites from enjoying these as entertainment. And brain damage is common in these sports
You sound like you partake.

I’m taking some time to myself to think all of this over.

OP, see what happens after you put the boundaries in place. Jumping to divorce is absurd.
If he has an affair bc he just has to get this kind of kink fulfilled elsewhere, then you have your answer.
The problem is she never truly consented to it, she was just “indulging” him.

Let’s break it down.
He is either:
-Lying about not hearing you and put his want to get off of choking you above your request for safety.
-Not checking in with you during dangerous behaviour to see if you’re doing ok, still enjoying it. Again putting his want to get off on choking you above your own pleasure.
Either way, he’s a bad lover and doesn’t care about YOU in bed at all.

I agree. The normalization of violence as a turn on is absolutely disgusting. Safe words...blah blah blah. If being violent toward your partner or being the victim of violence turns you on, there is something wrong with you. So many f-d up people.

This is sexual violence. He could be a predator to other people and you would not even know (or maybe this shows that you know). This is deeply disturbing behavior and it is not normal. This is akin to rape. You are being raped in your marriage. I am so sorry for you and your children.
If your DH is role-playing and misguided - he needs to go for intense therapy. Man, this is so messed up!!
Obviously non consensual choking is wrong and any choking shouldn’t be happening because of the chances of brain injury and death, even if consensual.
That said, biting, scratching, spanking are all “sexual violence” too. And then there’s the whole bdsm segment. If there’s consent (and safe), it’s fine.
If someone said “stop spanking me” and you continue to hit them, that’s NOT fine. If someone said “stop biting me” and you continue chomping down, that’s NOT fine. You are so f***ed if you think this is nbd.
"Stop" should be avoided as a safeword. The "Yellow/"Red" system is generally best. But do what works for you.
You sound like an abuser.
NP. You sound like someone who has zero knowledge of BDSM.
This is her husband, not some casual partner. You tell your husband NO and he needs to effing stop.
What a bizarre response.
If no means no, it doesn’t matter who it is - husband, casual, or whatever.
If no means “that is a word I might say that does not mean no” where my actual no word is “red” meaning stop everything indefinitely, then husband casual or whatever stops on “red”
This of course is not OPs situation
A bunch of illiterate people who don't know what BDSM is are just ranting. Ignore them.
We know what BDSM is bro.
