Masechet Ketuvot 39a: Who pays צער and who doesn't and why?; when does the מפתה pay קנס? The first of these topics develops a psychological analysis of situations which have an overlap of pleasure and pain, does the person feel the acute pain when he is motivated to implement the action for the goal of pleasure? The assumption that pleasure reduces suffering only applies when the individual seeks out the pleasure with full consent. The latter part of shiur addresses the option of the מפתה to marry the Na'ara and exempt himself of קנס.
