Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from On the Reproductive Organs, and the Venereal The author begs leave to introduce this work to the reader as a plain statement of facts which deserve careful consideration. It may shock the modesty of some, but it is to be hoped that the majority may see the necessity and the great good which may grow out of this study. Physicians have manifested a degree of mock modesty with reference to diseases of the reproductive function, which has prevented their investigation, and turned the many sufferers over to the hands of advertising quacks and charlatans. There may be some excuse for this in the innate modesty of man, but the time has now come when an intelligent knowledge is demanded. It will not now do for a physician to shrug his shoulders, and elevate his eyebrows at the mention of masturbation, spermatorrhoea, marital excesses, etc. There are a great many wrongs in the sexual life of the people causing disease, which might be righted did the physician know, and should he exert his influence in a right direction. His relation to the public is not alone as a dispenser of drugs, he should be a teacher in addition. And to whom, if not to the profession, can the people turn for this information? Some of the conclusions reached by the author may not suit the views or the prejudices of the reader, but all that is asked for them is a candid consideration. We live in a wicked world, and the millenium will hardly come in our time, and we have therefore to think of these sexual evils in the light of greater and less, and not as that which may be wholly eradicated.
