Yes, by definition. A masochist is someone who experiences pleasure (sexual or otherwise) from some kinds of pain or humiliation. Most masochists also experience the physical or emotional pain to some extent, but the pleasure is more intense or rewarding than the pain.

For individuals who practice masochism, the experience can be pleasurable due to the release of endorphins and the connection between pain and pleasure that they may have developed. However, it is important to note that this is a subjective experience and not everyone finds pleasure in pain. Additionally, engaging in masochistic activities should always be consensual, safe, and done within the boundaries established by all involved parties.
