"Meanings, Uses and Mis-uses of Pain" lecture with Dr. John McConnell

Wednesday, February 19, 7:00pm – 9:00pm
Pleasures and Treasures, 2525 University Ave, San Diego

About this presentation

This 90-minute workshop will cover pain-play from the biological, evolutionary, and psychological perspectives. The meanings of pain in Western Culture has morphed over the centuries. In the late 20th century, the (then named) BDSM community fixated on the simple idea that the endorphin high explains why people enjoy pain-play. This focus came at the expense of exploring more complex emotional motivations related to the places pain-players go inside their heads. As pain play moves from gentle to intense, players move through complex emotional and mental states which gives their play deeper meaning. These meanings give a fuller understanding of motivations which are adaptive and healthy, leading to the conclusion that pain-play can be synergistic with deep loving relationships.

The last part of this talk looks at the shadow sides of physical and psychological pain, which is how they can erupt unwanted or be consciously abused in relationships. Most often psychological pain between partners is not intentional. What does pain mean, here, when it is neither wanted nor useful? When pain is mis-used then at least one of the partners feels worse about their self: they feel de-valued. This is the exact opposite of healthy erotic pain which leaves both partners feeling more valued by both self and other.
