For me, there's actually a very distinct line... a continuing pain, like clamps or electrical play, abrasion, etc., i can process as pleasure almost all the time. Any kind of impact play just HURTS, but i also feel extremely attracted to it (and disappointed that i can never take as much as i feel i should be able to).

...dave

Now see I am the oposite I love impact play especially heavy thudy floggers and the single tail. I also like canes but it really depends on where I am at on that particular day how much I cane take. Paddles are really hard for me the sting is so intense yet the one and only time I have been to space was from paddles. So they are kind of a love hate thing for me. I also love needles and cuting and to bleed. I love the look of blood running in crimson trails down my breasts. But clamps drive me absoultly crazy I can't hardly deal with them, I think that is why Sir likes to use them on me so much...lol. I have yet do experiance electrical play...stops and thinks, did I put that on my to do list, if not I need to go add it. MMMMM so many torturous things to try still.

aurora

Edited to add: Seems to me someone here promised me a good caning....looks to kyra I still say I can sceam louder *WEG*.

In the context of bdsm, I really like pain and I convert it to pleasure quite well (I liked that explanation of converting pain to pleasure that someone else gave on this thread). However, if I stub my toe or sprain my ankle, I wince, cry and whine just like anyone else with a... normal?... pain threshold. There are some things however, that I find pleasurable that people normally hate - getting a shot at the doctor's office, for instance. I look away not because I don't want to see the needle but so the doctor doesn't see the look of pleasure on my face... that I cannot hide. THAT bit is sort of annoying. O.o

It is difficult to explain my lust and craving for pain. I wanted it long before I ever experienced it. I wondered if the fantasy would translate to reality and was thrilled that it was even better than I had imagined. I don’t play in public so I only compete with myself. I have set goals for myself because I wanted to extend the intensity as well as the amount of time of each session. Whether the pain play is torture or pleasure, it puts me in a place where I like to be.
Sometimes it is an emotional release; sometimes it is calming. There are times it evokes a sensual/sexual response and other times I am at a level so far beyond that sex is superfluous.
But there are limits to what I am willing to explore and experience. I can’t imagine enjoying pain on some parts of my body and there are methods of causing pain that I don’t ever want to endure.
Like others have mentioned, there are types of pain that I am not able to tolerate. Yesterday through last evening, I had a headache so bad that I couldn’t think, couldn’t eat and certainly did not enjoy it. I took every pain medication I could find to try to feel better. Yesterday, I was not a masochist!

I had a masochist in my life (damn, I miss him) who used to say, "There's good pain and bad pain, Ma'am!"

My pain tolerence is not very high. I have often been at parties and wished I could take as much as some of the other people.

However, I do not think that what I am experiencing is any less intence than theirs.

I Agree....someone getting their nipple calmps tightened may give them the same feeling another woman gets having her skin pierced and branded....
it is not about how much pain but how much you enjoy it and what it does for you

Now that my bad pain headache is gone, I can nod vigorously in agreement!

pain is a very subjective thing, frame of mind, location. So many things can effect how it is perceived. As a newbie I remember watching others play and thinking 'dear God! I could never do that or take that much' and yet I have had people look at my play and say the same thing. I've also heard 'But you are new! You should not be playing like that!" Why not was my answer. I am a pain slut, cut me flog me and I'm going to scream and cry but I will be healthy screams and it is my form of Nirvana
Now if I get a sliver I revert to a five year old and freak if anyone comes near me to try and remove it.
I didn't come into the lifestyle with any knowledge of what specificcly I liked or how much pain was good. I was a bit of a blank slate, I jumped in with both feet and discovered very quickly that I liked sertian kinds of pain. I was actually a bit suprised when I found out not everyone was a masochist *s*
I've also been very sad to see the egotistical ones that feel if you don't have a pain tolerance set somewhere up there with broken bones and root canals with no freezing well then you are a poser....... Ya, okay... NOT... each person, newbie or ancient *g* is going to find what works for them and that standard shouldn't be about camparing to what someone else can or can't take. It's a nasty trap

i know my pain tolerance is good (for me) but not very high (compared to some). i mean, what are we classifying as high anyway?

to me, my pain tolerance doesn't seem particularly high. then again, my limits in that area haven't yet really been pushed - maybe tapped a bit, but not enough to make me think i had too much. i look forward to seeing how far i CAN go, and hopefully receiving training/training myself to be able to take more, because it pleases Him. i -am- a masochist, don't get me wrong, but after a certain pain threshold, and in certain painful activities that i do not find pleasurable, the pleasure i get from the pain becomes less about the pleasure itself and more about seeing how much i can take and hopefully pleasing Him in that respect.

I am as you all would say a 'newbie' and I personally can't handle any pain unless it is received from my Master. I have also learned that as we delve deeper into the lifestyle that I am able to take more and more. I think maybe the pain one can handle builds. But I also don't beleive the pain tolerance thing, because at any other time I am a wuss.

Hi Knight,

I have what I consider a very low pain tolerance level. I love to play well beyond it but I don't think there is a connection. I hate the pain while it is happening but I crave it, the primal feelings/reactions it invokes and the look of satisfaction in a sadist's eyes when the pain level is just right for what gives them that satisfied feeling.
