Odaxelagnia

Odaxelagnia is a paraphilia involving sexual arousal through biting, or being bitten. Odaxelagnia is considered a mild form of sadism.[1][2][3] Alfred Kinsey studied Odaxelagnia, reporting that roughly half of all people surveyed had experienced sexual arousal from biting.[4] Odaxelagnia has associations with vampire lifestyles, but does not necessarily involve bloodletting.[5]
