This is really interesting, thanks! I’m a female sexual masochist (who mostly just avoids that shit because respect is more important than getting off). The difference between the male masochist description here and my life is kind of hilarious. I have even less tolerance for abusive behavior than the women I’m close to because power dynamics stand out a ton for me. The whole “choking/harming themselves in private to get off” must be a testosterone or sex addict thing, it sounds utterly insane to me.

Yeah, I think the entire theory of masochism - and pretty much every other topic under the sun - is based on studying/observing the behaviors and psyches of males and thinking males represent all of humanity.

Glad to hear you mostly avoid "that shit." Good luck to you, and stay safe.
