Masturbation in history



We used to associate the best part of hysterical attacks on masturbation with hypocrisy of XIX century people. However since masturbation does not lead to generation, attitude to this phenomenon (speaking about male masturbation) in history was basically negative.
Primitive mind identified sperm not only with "vital power", but also with individuality, believing that it contained "a whole person". Masturbation was considered the waste of precious time, exhausting vitality of a real man. Besides, inaccurate use of sperm, its pouring out into "improper" place could give your sperm into the hands of a stranger, allowing ally to bewitch you, etc.
Many religions blame masturbation. It was often associated with homosexuality. In many languages, the words "masturbation" and "suicide" are described by one and the same euphemism � "lay hands on oneself".
Scientific notation in this respect changed in the beginning of XX century. The first discussion about the nature of masturbation in Psychoanalytical Group of Vienna in 1910 lasted for three days turned out to be so controversial, that Freud decided to publish its materials.
One of the participants, the german psychoanalyst Wilhelm Stekel took the radical position, claiming that masturbation with sex toys was safe and even beneficial. If one could suppress it completely, it could lead to sexual crimes and teen suicide increase, as many forbidden sexual desires are eased during masturbation. Though this position made Stekel an outcast among psychoanalysts, but he stood his ground.
Having polled 5300 men, outstanding sexologist Alfred Kinsey came to the conclusion that it was not masturbation which caused damage, but fears springing from incorrect sexual education.
Gradually this point of view became more or less conventional.
