subs/slaves/masochists /bottoms: Do you get sexually turned on when pain is inflicted on you?

Contributor: emiliaa emiliaa
Rarely and never is what I put--I can enjoy very small twinges of pain, but anything severe is just a turn off.

Pain is a turn on, pain plus pleasure is my favorite experience.
Getting cropped and groped...

I love pain play, especially heavy pain play (the kind that leaves welts and bruises). I love the marks, too. I like to look at them in the mirror and poke at them to make them hurt again. I love that edge between pleasure and pain, I've been genital whipped with a flogger (Big, heavy leather one with weighted falls) and it is perhaps one of my favorite activities. I can get off from it with no other stimulation...

I love being spanked, and flogged. But sometimes the pain is just too much for me, and I don't like it.

I checked usually, but it's very dependent on the type of pain and the situation.

For example, yesterday, my partner bruised my ribs. He was playfully vaulting over me on the bed, and instead of bracing on the bed he accidentally grabbed my side, and all of his weight and force centered on my ribcage.

I couldn't have been LESS turned on.

For me I find by and large that blunt pain is a turnoff (being hit, things like that) where sharp pain (being cut, wartenberg wheel, etc) is a turnon. But I can find blunt pain arousing in a scene, and sharp pain unarousing outside of one.

I like pain once I'm aroused, but if I'm bone dry it's not fun. I definitely need foreplay. But once I'm all hot and bothered, oh Lordy. I'm a painslut.

Hmm, I don't really know. I like things a little rough sometimes, and I enjoy a light spanking here and there. But I wouldn't necessarily say I enjoy full on pain.

To a certain extent, yes. There's a point that the mental excitement just can't overcome and the pain is too much, but plenty of things do arouse me, pain-wise. Of course, the domination in conjunction with the pain is much better than just pain!

I'm usually top but it turns me on anyway. Go figure?

It always depends on the force used, but one can stretch the boundaries, so it's a question of how, and how often...

I'm a dom, but I do like being spanked, choked, or having my hair pulled... I guess about a 3 or 4 on a pain scale.

I think the main reason for me is because I live with chronic pain, and short bursts of different pain in a pleasant setting make the chronic pain recede a bit. It's something that I'm going to need to work out with my sub before he visits, because receiving pain is not a submissive act for me.

If it goes much past biting (without bruising or breaking the skin) or some hair pulling, I get pretty turned off.. and slightly stressed out.

I'm going to say usually because it depends on who's causing the pain for me.

It depends on the context violence out of anger is never a turn on.

I don't like to get hurt so we just do light play but the whole control thing is a turn on.

^^ exactly this. I don't mind some pain, but at some point it becomes a distraction if it's too much.

Depends on the context. I would have said always but I guess if I was whacked over the head with a metal baseball bat during sex, I'd stop and question my life choices.

I'm not a fan of the pain, but the act gets me pretty hot.

I struggle with pain as a rule...in fact I'm a complete wimp! But pain inflicted during sex some how only heightens my arousal x

Spanking is a definite turn on for me.

Usually. I think it really depends where the pain is (on the body) and how it's being given. Like, when I stub my toe, I typically just want to fall over and cry for eternity and get not jollies out of it. But, if someone hits me, I typically just have weird waves of pleasure. Short, odd story here for you, when I was a senior in high school, some kid tried to fight me and I wanted nothing to do with it; he starts just hammering away on my face and the whole time I'm just laughing 'cuz I was enjoying it. Creeped him out really good.

So, yeah, it depends, but usually I do.

It depends on the source. I was bullied in school by an awful girl who would whack me with her heavy textbooks, and that sure wasn't a turn on neutral sources are about 50-50.

Personally, I find pain a HUGE turn on. The only type of pain I really can't stand or don't find to be a turn on would be dental pain. Mentally, I can turn any kind of pain besides dental pain into a pleasurable experience for myself.

I have had two "orgasmic births" that I have attributed to the fact that pain fires the pleasure receptors in my brain.

I wouldn't say you are in the minority, though. It is a personal preference, I even know a Dominant who is a masochist!

I am in a dom/sub relationship and when I am naughty, my master punishes me and I find it annoying. not pleasurable of any sort.

I love pain if it's meant in play. I can take a lot and I get extremely excited from it. However, if I'm being punished, that's a different story and I do not like it, which of course is the point.

I prefer my girlfriend to be the slave. She gets really turned on with pain.

I refuse to identify as any of the labels you have listed. However; I do usually sexually aroused from some forms of pain and it also depends on who is the one inflicting the pain as well.
