Is it easy enough that you could answer it? I don't know why people think pain is bad, either, except that we don't like it - and I addressed that as an explanation in the article.
You mean the bit about masochists? We don't need to explain why they think pain is bad in their specific circumstances, because they don't think pain is bad in those specific circumstances. As for the rest of us (and the masochists when they're outside the bedroom), we find pain painful because those who didn't got themselves killed instead of contributing to our lineage.
