He had an abnormally small opening in the prepuce, making the
uncovering of the glans almost impossible. (At the age of about
37, he himself slit the prepuce by three or four cuts of a
scissors at intervals of about ten days. This was followed by a
marked decrease in desire, especially as he shortly afterwards
learned the importance of local cleanliness.) While in college at
about the age of 19 he began to have nocturnal emissions
occasionally and once or twice a week when at stool. Alarmed by
these, he consulted a physician, who warned him of the danger,
gave him bromide and prescribed cold bathing of the parts, with a
hard, cool bed. These stopped the emissions.
He never had connection with women until the age of about 25, and
then only three times until his marriage at 30 years of age,
being deterred partly by conscientious scruples, but more by
shyness and convention, and deriving very little pleasure from
these instances. Even since marriage he has derived more pleasure
from sexual excitement than from coitus, and can maintain
erection for as long as two hours.
He has always been accustomed to torture himself in various
ingenious ways, nearly always connected with sex.
