masochism, in contrast to sadism, is ..theatrical: ..violence is never carried out, brought to its conclusion

masochism, in contrast to sadism, is inherently theatrical: violence is for the most part feigned

The idea that somebody is observing me is already inscribed into sexuality as such.
SLAVOJ ZIZEK on the Third, the big Other, the witness in the minds of the couple, for which they perform and the imaginaning of which gives their act not so much consistency in the case of sex, but gives their act the necessary degree of fantasy to eroticize the sexual act enough in order to be immersed in it enough
Even with our most intimate acts, we always act for a potential virtual gaze. So this structure surrounding the idea that somebody is observing me is already inscribed into sexuality as such.
