Preferred term
guilty pleasures
Definition
- Definition A guilty pleasure is an activity with short-term payoffs that are positive for a person but with long-term negative consequences. For example, reading a trashy magazine can be rewarding in the short term because it is fun, but it can be more negative in the long term if your friends think less of you for enjoying it.
