It is not sadism if it's unsexual. It's Schadenfreude. Taking pleasure in someone's pain or misfortune. Not necesarrily sexual pleasure.Nachalnik wrote:It doesn't count as sadism if it's unsexual, right?

Sexual pleasure or not.Sadism is the derivation of pleasure as a result of inflicting pain or watching pain inflicted on others.

Huh. I'd always heard it as purely sexual pleasure. Anyway, now this brings up the question of if she's speaking of misfortune or actual physical pain.

Re: TMI Thread [NSFW] Version 2.0 (Strictly Moderated)
I've been having a lot of dreams lately about random anthropomorphs.
Yes, the dreams are of the sexual kind.
I had a fairly vivid dream the previous night about a giraffe anthropomorph.
It's unusual for me to be having these dreams with any amount of regularity.

It's most likely coincidence, If I had to guess. and if it isn't, it has some reason to it that has absolutely nothing to do with anything the dream is about, somehow.

I dunno, sometimes I think dreams are exactly what they imply.
I've always found giraffe anthropomorphs attractive - mostly because of the giraffe fur pattern and associated tall-ness; It's just odd that my subconcious generated a random anthropomorph like that (I don't really have a giraffe character per se).
You really don't have to search for hidden meanings in every dream a person has; Sometimes the meaning is as blatant as a slap in the face.

I know. Sarcasm is always lost through text.
Most dreams probably do mean exactly what they imply. They're just your imagination going into overdrive, I think.

Ah, no I didn't catch your sarcasm there.
On the internet I've become accustom to dropping in a '[/sarcasm]' to make it crystal clear that I'm being sarcastic.

You just explained something I just said. I am aware of that, at this point. I was more wondering if it was inflicting actual pain that she was enjoying.Exeres wrote:Schadenfreude would be laughing at someone falling down.Kierou wrote:Huh.

I believe that he means that he is so massive that he tipped over his computer with the sheer power of it.
