Just a footnote, but even people who enjoy pain make a clear distinction between "good pain" and "bad pain". I doubt that anyone into BDSM enjoys a migraine or a toothache, although the practice may help them deal with it..
Then there are also the hot chili enthusiasts.
ETA: updated link for good vs. bad pain
It's funny -- I can't use masochism to get through a migraine or toothache, but I can use it to get through dentistry (which, even with anaesthesia, hurts a lot for me). The "expected, active agent" seems to play a role in that.
That link is broken, otherwise good post.
