Venis in Furs is not just directly influential of, but also directly referred to consistently throughout the book (highest concentration of reference in Circe chapter). The Circe chapter has a solid 10-15 pages of Bloom's over the top male masochism and cuckshit

Education anglaise is pretty old (I want to say 1909) but it also had a movie made of it in 1982. One of the first in "you wear the dress" malesub

Masochists must have some kind of deep-rooted dislike of themselves.

good question. it's not in freud. in freud they just like authority; they want someone to be in control (hence business suits, uniforms, nurse suits et al)

I always thought that masochism was about passivity. They need to escape responsibility and the pressure that comes with having control so they give it over completely to someone else.

Deleuze wrote a pretty good book about Sacher-Masoch called Coldness and Cruelty that sort of ties these two ideas together alongside German Idealism/Hegelianism/Social Contracts. Draws from Venus In Furs as well as Sacher-Masoch's wife's journals. You can read the contracts that he signed with her and such, they are very n depth, but like, it seems interesting to want a "temporary authority" or passivity within certain constraints only. Somewhat like a half measure.

that's a submissive. a masochist has more to do with enjoyment of pain
