I've been speculating that Masochism may be correlated with Fi. Introverted Feeling is the function that tends to be the hardest on us while evaluating our own sense of inner worth. Individuals who perceive for themselves to be rotten through and through may derive a great deal of satisfaction from seeing oneself punished...and on top of this being internally rooted psychologically... many..deem for this to be not enough and have this continue on the physical level..
This passage... was no doubt written by a dominant Fi individual...
'So I muddied the stream of friendship with the filth of lewdness and clouded its clear waters with hell's black river of lust. And yet, despite such putrid depravity, I was vain enough to harbor an ambition to succeed in the world. I also fell in love, which was a trap of my own making. My God, God of Mercy, how good were you to me, for you mixed such bitterness in that cup of pleasure. My love was returned, and I became chained in the shackles of its consummation. Even in the midst of my joys I embroiled in tribulation, lashed by the cruel rods of jealousy, fear, anger and bitter argument.'
