On a simple level there are two types, namely the type that genuinely wishes to be subjected to pain and humiliation, and the type of person who seeks sexual stimulus without anything becoming beyond the threshold of enjoyment. Properly administered, "punishment" does no permanent damage (bruises heal).

The former may want to atone for some misdemeanor, real or imagined, and may have a deep psychological need for punishment. If the masochist is asking for punishment that can lead to permanent damage, it may be advisable to consult a "kink-aware" counselor or therapist.

The other type should just enjoy the experience, providing that nobody is hurt by the activity, and that their partners are not troubled by it.

There are many forms that the experience can take, including, but not exclusively, whipping, kicking, being tied-- especially in uncomfortable positions, being subjected to verbal abuse, having needles inserted in sensitive parts and being forced to have intimate contact with urine or fecal matter. There are many sub-categories to the above depending on the personal wishes of the masochist.

It is important to note that regardless of any agreement or "contract" between a masochist and their Top or Dom, the Top remains responsible for any injuries, both ethically and legally.
