The pleasure of pain – More than a trend
Pain is somehow perceived negatively by all people. Many simply cannot understand that in some places there are people who can enjoy the pleasure of pain and see it as something beautiful. But why is that actually the case?
Can pain be a beautiful feeling?
Pleasure in pain is no longer a taboo subject. Many men and women openly admit their masochistic tendencies and live them out in partnerships or swingers clubs. Those who do not take pleasure in pain themselves often find it difficult to understand how someone can take pleasure in it. What are actually the causes of this, how do people live out this tendency today, and is it a trend or a predisposition?
The pleasure of pain has become a business, with which the sex toy industry earns millions today. Online stores and traditional sex stores offer a colorful bouquet of love toys from restraints to whips to a St. Andrew’s cross. Not everyone dared to go to the sex store in the past. Through the Internet, the sex toys can now be conveniently ordered to your home, so the barrier to buy these toys has fallen sharply.
For masochists, pain and pleasure are closely related. Often they even feel increased pleasure with increased pain. This increased pleasure in pain does not necessarily have to be physical. Even a verbal humiliation can be perceived by masochists as a nice feeling, while others would only feel humiliated by it.
This pleasure caused by physical or verbal acts is definitely perceived as a pleasant feeling by masochists.
What is pain anyway?
Pain can be defined as an unpleasant physical or sensory sensation. But then why do masochists still feel pleasure from pain? This can be explained by the fact that behind the pain may lie not only negative but also positive emotions, which can make the pain feel liberating.
How is the pleasure of pain evoked in the body?
Those who enjoy the pain of sexual acts have a particularly high release of happiness hormones and adrenaline in the brain, which makes the pain feel pleasant and exciting. Such reactions of the body by no means take place only during sexual acts. Even in a competitive athlete, such as a marathon runner, happiness hormones are released when they successfully push themselves beyond their actual performance limits.
Why do masochists want such pain in love?
Masochists seek the ultimate thrill by releasing all negative emotions. The complete surrender to her sex partner has a liberating effect on her. They can let themselves go fully and do not have to decide for themselves what action to take. This state can almost be described as ecstatic and is enhanced by the use of sadistic sex toys such as nipple clamps.
The pleasure of pain is mostly caused by the sadistic partner and his skillful handling of the sex toys that cause the pleasure pain.
In summary, pleasure in pain is not a fashion trend, but a real predisposition in which certain situations start certain chemical processes in the body.
Are masochists at the mercy of their partners through the pleasure of pain?
In sexual play, masochistic partners let themselves go and are in a sense at the mercy of their dominant partner. Therefore, for safe pleasure in pain, it is important for them to pursue their passion only with partners they can trust. Often a safeword is agreed upon beforehand. This is what the masochist can say when it becomes too much for him and he wants to slip out of his submissive role.
At the same time, he often chooses the sex toys together with the dominant partner before the actual lovemaking. Of course, these can vary greatly from person to person. One masochist, for example, may find pleasure in pain through whipping, while the other is only into bondage and verbal chastisement.
What sex toys are used?
There is an endless offer of sex toys with which a sadist or a dominatrix can chastise the masochistic partner and spoil him at the same time. Typically, people who enjoy pain like BDSM. There the main tools are ropes for tying, whips, masks, gags and collars.
But there are many more devices like SM furniture, nipple clamps, SM candles, anal plugs and much more. So if you want to try BDSM for the first time yourself, you’re spoiled for choice. However, it is important to make sure that the dominant partner has experience and knows how to knot the ropes, for example, in bondage games. This is the only way to safely enjoy the pleasure of pain to the fullest.
