Role
Sadist
You enjoy giving intense sensation to a willing partner.
In kink, a Sadist enjoys giving strong physical sensation to someone who wants to receive it. It has nothing to do with cruelty: the whole point is a partner who is enjoying themselves, and a careful giver who knows where the edges are.
Signs you might lean this way
- A partner reacting strongly to what you do is exciting
- You are interested in impact or other intense sensation
- You like building intensity slowly and reading the response
How the test scores it
Your Sadist score comes from how much these three statements appeal to you:
- Giving a willing partner intense physical sensation
- Watching a partner react strongly to something I am doing
- Building intensity gradually while reading how they respond
The other side: Masochist
Sadist pairs with Masochist. You enjoy receiving intense sensation. The two are scored separately, and it is common to score well on both.
Talking about it
Agree on what kinds of sensation are welcome, how intense, and how they will tell you to ease off. Check in afterwards as well as during.
