I'm a Joyist and proud!

I looked in the online English Dictionary {www.dictionary.com} for the word Sadist, the definition I read was: -Noun
 1.  A person that receives sexual gratification through causing pain or degradation to others.
 2.  Any person that enjoys being cruel.
 3.  A person that practices extreme cruelty.

Seems about right. Being the fact freak that I am, I went further to look at the Antonyms, and got this:

Antonyms: Gentleman, humanitarian.

Hold on a moment, that doesn't seem right. Gentleman is the opposite to sadist? Take that definition for sadist and fine the opposite should be something like "A person that receives sexual gratification through causing positive emotions or pleasure in others". Correctly reversing the action rather then making a reflexive about the speaker.

After some research I found that there is no word, that I could find, in the English language that correctly fits the definition I have made in the last paragraph. I think as the first to notice or mention this I should be awarded the right to make such a word. 

I choose "JOYIST"

Joyist: {noun} a person who receives gratification, esp sexual, through causing pleasure or positive emotions in others. 

Joyism: {Adj} the act of receiving gratification, esp sexual, by causing pleasure or positive emotions in others. 

So there, I'm a Joyist, and as far as I know I'm the only one. I prefer to see others derive excitement and happiness through my actions rather then experience physical forms of pleasure myself.
