Odaxelagnia (from Greek: ὀδάξ, odáx, "with the teeth" and Greek: λαγνεία, lagneía, "lust") is a paraphilia involving sexual arousal through biting, or being bitten. Odaxelagnia is considered a mild form of sadomasochism.[1][2][3] The bites can be more or less intense and occur in various parts of the body, e.g., on the arms, shoulders, hands, and occasionally on the genitals. [4] Odaxelagnia is sometimes associated with sexual vampirism, but most forms of sexual biting do not involve bloodshed. [5] Alfred Kinsey studied odaxelagnia, reporting that roughly half of all people surveyed had experienced sexual arousal from biting.[6]
