n. algolagnia, derivation of sexual satisfaction from pain or from inflicting pain, sadomasochism
Example Sentences:
1.In 1892, Albert von Schrenck-Notzing introduced the term algolagnia to describe "sexual" masochism, to differentiate it from Charles Féré's earlier term called "algophilia"; Schrenck-Notzing's interpretation was that algolagnia involved lust, not love as Fere interpreted the phenomenon.
En 1892, Albert von Schrenck-Notzing intronise le terme d'« algolagnie » pour décrire un masochisme « sexuel » et ainsi le différencier du terme que Charles Féré avait donné à l'« algophilie » ; selon Schrenck-Notzing, l'algolagnie impliquait le « plaisir » et non l'« amour », contrairement aux propos de Féré.
