Sadism and Masochism.
It can be sexual but people exhibit behaviors in either of these groups in non sexual ways as well.
Sadists enjoy the pain of others.
Masochists enjoy feeling pain themselves.
When the 2 get together it can mean some kinky exploits and I do speak from experience ;P Also keep in mind you can be both, either or neither, some times or all the time. It is a set of behaviors.

Sadism and masochism
Sadism is the sexual or social pleasure or gratification in the infliction of pain and suffering upon another person. The word is derived from the name of the Marquis de Sade, a prolific French philosopher-writer of sadistic novels, plays, and a unique philosophical discourse that championed the infliction and reception of extreme pain as an art form that to him was both sublime and beautiful. The counterpart of sadism is masochism, the sexual pleasure or gratification of having pain or suffering inflicted upon the self, often consisting of sexual fantasies or urges for being beaten, humiliated, bound, tortured, or otherwise made to suffer, either as an enhancement to or a substitute for sexual pleasure. The name is derived from the name of the 19th century author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, known for his novel Venus in Furs that dealt with highly masochistic themes.
Sadism and masochism, often interrelated (one person obtaining sadistic pleasure by inflicting pain or suffering on another person who thereby obtains masochistic pleasure), are collectively known as S&M or sadomasochism.

A sadist likes to hurt other people for sexual pleasure, a masochist likes to be hurt by others for sexual pleasure. It usually takes one of each to practice S&M. Some people are both.

Haha well I was under the impression that s and m meant slave and master. Like a role play where one person is the slave and one is the master. kind of a kinky thing. Also i believe those involved in S and M generally wear lots of scandolous leather and use whips and handcuffs...etc. Hope i helped!

Sadism and masochism - it is sexual in nature. Rather than filling up a lot of space here, you can check it out at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadomasochism

Sado masichism (sorry if I've spelled it wrong), domination and submission. Most people associate it with leather, whips, and chains.
