"S and M" -- also written S/M and even SM -- is Sadism (SAY disum) and Masochism and (MASS oh kisum). The narrow technical definitions are being sexually stimulated by hurting others (sadism) or by being hurt (masochism).

In common use, SM sex also refers to bondage and discipline sex games. Writer Pat Califia calls these "power exchanges" in which one partner (the "bottom") gives up power and the other partner (the "top") takes it.

These activities can be part of a healthy sex life if (a) the players are consenting adults, and (b) the primary objective is mutual sexual gratification, and not pain or humiliation.
