Masochist

A Masochist enjoys strong physical sensation in a setting they have chosen, with someone they trust. For many people the line between intense and pleasurable is blurry in the right context, and that is the appeal.

Signs you might lean this way

• A sting or an ache can feel good in the right moment
• You like sensation that builds
• You enjoy the calm that follows something intense

How the test scores it

Your Masochist score comes from how much these three statements appeal to you:

• Receiving intense physical sensation from someone I trust
• A sting or an ache that feels good in the right moment
• The calm that comes after something intense

The other side: Sadist

Masochist pairs with Sadist. You enjoy giving intense sensation to a willing partner. The two are scored separately, and it is common to score well on both.

Talking about it

Describe the kinds of sensation you like and the ones you do not. "More", "less" and "stop" should all be easy to say.
