Opowiadając chciany ból. Czego nie potrafi się powiedzieć o sadomasochizmie
Telling about Desired Pain. What We Are Incapable of Saying about Sadomasochism

Summary/Abstract: An attempt at answering a question about the essence of the problem of expressing and using the category of “desired pain”. By basing himself on research conducted among people practising sexual sadomasochism, and referring to their experiences, the author tries to prove that the response to difficulties with describing pain as something desirable is to be found in attempts at talking about it as if it was not pain at all or describing it as an experience that transcends language to such a degree that it cannot be expressed by the latter.
