Spankee: painful spanking generally don't make us cry. And other physical pain?

[melan]

I found this subject on another forum and I think it's very interesting; the question was: do you cry when you are spanked?
The general answer was: no, if we cry it's for emotional reason, not the pain in itself, with only a few exceptions (including myself) who admitted thet long, strong, harsh punishment can bring us to tears if not to real crying, tears of pure excruciating pain, not emotional.

I'd like to go more deeply through this topic, and my opinion is the following:

1) as a spankee I am masochistic and, somehow, I like the kind of pain coming from a spanking
2) we spankee probably have in general a higher pain threshold then "normal" people
3) hard pain from spanking don't generally makes us cry (according to the answers of the other thred). Only a very few of us (including myself) admitted to have been brought to tears because of the pain due to a hard spanking

Now the question:
do you think that a similar ammount of pain duo to something else then an erotic spanking (for exemple an injury) could make you cry more easely?

In other world: even if you don't cry because of a spanking, has never happened to you to be brought to tears by other kind of physical pain?

Thanks for your contributions,

Melan

I cried when I had walking pneumonia that went undiagnosed for so long that when I finally did get diagnosed, my Doc wanted to put me into the hospital immediately (refused to go, was lucky enough to have friends who were willing to come by instead). My head hurt so badly from lack of oxygen that I wanted to rip it off - one of the only times in my life, I've ever taken narcotics (vicoden?). My first couple of outbreaks were also so consistently, unrelentingly painful that I cried then.

I have an extraoridinarily high tolerance for pain received within an S/m context - while it has never gone to this extreme since (have only ended up with small bruises or scratches from playing - the kind that heal within a day), when I had my cleansing, it took over a month for my the bruises on my butt to completely heal, 3 weeks for those on my back. Didn't cry at all, although almost passed out at the very, very end, but the friend who did it for me is incredibly skilled, knew exactly throughout how far I could go at each phase.

In terms of other physical pain, yes I have cried. I cried when I sprained my ankle, I cried when I had a kidney infection, Pain has made me cry.

But in terms of what I enjoy, no, my pain/pleasure thresh hold is fairly high, and I keep working on it. It's nice that I know how to acheive a higher thresh hold then before and continue trying to build upon it. I like that I can slowly start taking more pain and it also slowly becomes more of a turn on.

I don't think I would be very happy if pain made me cry. Although for some reason, I do cry sometimes durring sex, and I am not sure what that is about. Especially if it gets really dirty, and it's not one of those I am crying because I am actually upset, I just get all teared up. And generally after a few minutes of cuddles afterwards, I am ok again.

Spanking or scenes, no crying, so far.

Kidney stone, Hallmark commercials, award shows, live performances, and much more, yes, crying.

If I've been up too late, my eyes cry but the rest of me doesn't.

I suppose I'm going to join the club and say that I havn't cried from spankings or scenes, but I have cried from physical pain.

In fact this morning my foot met my bed post in a most unpleasant manner...it's all the bed's fault of course...*mutters*

crybaby...

i have a fairly low tolerance level for pain...a firm spanking can make me cry purely from the physical pain of it. likewise i cry when i am whipped, caned, punched, kicked, or whatever else by my Master. however it is extremely rare that i cry when i am with someone other than my Master...regardless of the physical pain they are having me endure. that sort of emotional release is very intimate and not something i feel comfortable with exposing to other people, so even if inside i am screaming and crying, outside i can remain stoic through a lot. however one sound whack from my Master, and i'm in tears.

I used to cry every time I got a hang nail. I just couldn't take any sort of physical pain. But very rarely cry durring a session. Infact, a friend who has sessioned me a few times was very proud of the fact that he made my eyes water. But again, in the play time Master and I have had, he has made me bring myself to tears in various means, and yes some times it's pain. But I think more often it's the head trip of it. But I haven't been hurt since I started being sessioned, and learned an erotic side to pain, so I'm not sure how my tollerance has changed, or if it has.

Perhaps spanking needs to be defined here as for me I see it as hand on flesh only whereas I understand from previous discussions here that many in the US include paddles and floggers under the heading of spanking. That aside, yes, I have cried from pain despite having a high pain threshold. Once upon a time it was never, these days it can be unpredictable, though I suspect it is because often it is an emotional response more so than a physical one. It also has become less loaded with the need or feel it is better suppressed since he has developed a heavy fetish for my tears. Surprisingly it is often the milder pain which can make the difference while the heavy pain brings forth no tears.

I've cried when the right Top has said really nice things to me.

I've cried from all kinds of medical crap, but more out of uncertainty than out of pain. Made a bit of noise and eventually shut down and suffered a lot with my tattoo. I've cried over heartbreak more than any of the above.

I'm not especially submissive though, and the point of bottoming for me was always to find out where things got unpleasant and hang out there for a while and then stop it when I'd really had enough, so I only went to that point of unpleasantness for a bit and then stopped. I'm sure someone could have made me cry had I felt the need to continue for them or had agreed to keep going, but that wasn't my gig.

This lines describe me perfectly. I don't cry from physical pain. I've had a number of painful horse wrecks that left me broken in several places, and I never shed a tear. I don't cry when bottoming/submitting, either.

Let somebody say something nice to me, though, and I'm a blubbering mess. I'll never understand it. Master teases me about it, says he just can't be nice to me, LOL.

I cry when my heart's broken, too, but never in front of anyone.

Since I first saw this thread, I've tried to think of one instance of pain that was so bad it made me cry and I can't think of one - not even childbirth or tooth drilling without anesthetics. I don't find all pain pleasurable, however. On the flip side of that, weddings, new babies, long distance commercials, my girls, sad or sappy movies, emotional pain, etc., all make me cry. Go figure.

I picked the last option, spankings and other pain that smarts will bring tears to my eyes but I've never cried as a result of pain. I also shed tears when I laugh as well so I guess it's just in my make-up.
