In this episode of the KNP Podcast, M & G discuss and deconstruct the typical definitions and conceptions of sadism and masochism (hint: it’s not just sexual). They also talk about various types of sadism and masochism (emotional, physical, etc), their own journeys of accepting their sadistic and/or masochistic selves, and what their favorite implement for inflicting pain is. Content warning: this episode contains discussion of different S&M activities which can be triggering or disturbing (e.g. tickling and needle play).
