Is it normal to become a masochist after you've been sexually abused/exploited repeatedly as a child? I think that during things like this the will to survive kicks in and your brain makes the pain and humiliation a good thing... so you don't go completely insane. What does anyone else think? (And believe me, I'm not easily offended ...been there done that.)
Do you think it's normal?

LOL!
And thank you Pooltoy.
Not obsessed, if that's what you mean.
But it can hard for me to get off unless I'm being humiliated.
Beat me, beat me, but please don't hurt me.

Sticks and stones will break my bones, but whips and chains excite me!
Oh! How so? Please explain to me what I have said in here that leads you to draw such a conclusion.
absolutely pmsl
So, basically you are saying, you do not confine your comments/answers/oppinions to the post in hand? No wonder you come across as such an inaniloquent. Myself, I am more of a charientist!
Nothing BUT NOTHING, beats a nicely made cucumber sandwich on a hot afternoon! VERY COOL!
With someone's bare hand.
You people make me giggle.
No offence taken raflmfao. Incidentally, I have sufficient dildo's to satisfy any needs I have. I don't need to resort to fruit and veg for sexual gratification.
Actually, I use gloves when preparing any foor for others. (Just in case)
Have you ever seen the movie "Lolita"?
WTF has lolita got to do with this thread? OH, let me guess, it is daft dit123 who cant keep track for 2 minutes?
@: nearly
What the fuck are you talking about? I wrote this question. And I happen to be answering another question by asking such.
no, its not normal wtf. more than likely its just some childhood reco that ur dying to live out. go see a psych and lose all life savings to overcome
excuse me everyone i have an announcement to make,................ penis, that will be all
What the fuck is going on?
You're a fucking nut mate, just finish the job and do yourself in now imo.
yes i think it is normal I enjoy it too I love to be told to hurt myself or do humiliating things by a master on the internet lick being forced to drink my piss or evn more kinky things on cam . I enjoy giving a guy pleasure thro hurting me it turns me on a lot .
In my eyes this is a hard one. It has been shown that if you are struck as a child by a loving parent you can confuse the two sensations (love and pain) however is your mind is just trying to cope it means you burying some real feelings.

Please don't be afraid to explore this possibility.

It could however just be that you like pain and humiliation and if that is that case there is a great place for you in this world and many masters/mistresses for you out there.

Find were you are comfortable and that's were you should stay. Be free to do as you please.
Some people like pain, some people like chocolate ice cream.

I am dominant. I have whipped lots of people. None who didn't come back for more.

Key is to hurt without harming. or in your case be hurt without harming yourself.
Where have you been all my life? ;) And how do I get in contact with you, now?
I'm sort of like you, only pain doesn't feel good for me, I'm just numb to it. I was sexually abused by my neighbor/babysitter and them a few years later psychologically abused by my parents. I'm just numb to pain, but I have also noticed that I have sadism tendencies, for example, I get turned on by the idea of somebody I want to have sex with being humiliated in public. I am interested in your idea that masochism isn't just a perversion, but an adaption to block out trauma.
