		The terms "sadism" and "masochism" were coined by Krafft-Ebing in 1893, with reference to the Marquis de Sade and Baron Sacher von Masoch.
		However, whereas Freud argues that sadism is primary, Lacan argues that masochism is primary, and sadism is derived from it: "sadism is merely the disavowal of masochism."
		Masochism occupies a special place among the perversions, just as the invoking drive occupies a privileged place among the partial drives; it is the "limit-experience" in the attempt to go beyond the pleasure principle.

	Sadism and masochism
		The counterpart of sadism is masochism, the sexual pleasure or gratification of having pain or suffering inflicted upon the self, often consisting of sexual fantasies or urges for being beaten, humiliated, bound, tortured, or otherwise made to suffer, either as an enhancement to or a substitute for sexual pleasure.
		The terms sadism and masochism were first used consistently to describe these behaviors by the German psychiatrist Richard Freiherr von Krafft-Ebing in his 1886 compilation of case studies Psychopathia Sexualis, a famous study of sexual perversity.
		However, this is an uncommon case, and psychiatrists are now moving towards regarding sadism and masochism not as disorders in and of themselves, but only as disorders when associated with other problems such as a personality disorder.

	Bill's Sadism and Masochism
		These authors contributed their own names to sadism, pleasure derived from causing pain and masochism, pleasure from suffering. Such behavior is quite ordinary and widespread and separate from the S and M of whips and chains.

		While the cruelty of sadism and the suffering of masochism may appear to be separate, both are always present, one overt and the other covert so their combination is called sadomasochism.

		We have seen that the distinction between "sadism" and "masochism" cannot be maintained; not only was even De Sade himself something of a masochist and Sacher-Masoch something of a sadist, but between these two extreme groups of phenomena there is a central group in which the algolagnia is neither active nor passive.
		"Sadism" and "masochism" are simply convenient clinical terms for classes of manifestations which quite commonly occur in the same person.
		We have further found that—as might have been anticipated in view of the foregoing result—it is scarcely correct to use the word "cruelty" in connection with the phenomena we have been considering.

		When a friend asked what I was working on and I said, "I'm trying to write about masochism," she replied, "Isn't that tautological?" Masochism is one of those topics that's hard to mention without prompting a joke.
		But besides the fact that it involves sexual activity of a sort psychoanalytically deemed perverse, there may be another reason why masochism makes people nervous--the fact that talking about it always ends up involving the speaker in paradoxes, contradictions and, in fact, tautologies.
		Despite their alleged common basis in the concomitance of pleasure and pain, he says, "the concurrence of sadism and masochism is fundamentally one of analogy only; their processes and their formations are completely different," and so the Freudian construct of "sadomasochism" is a mirage.
