He considers that under normal circumstances coitus
should take place but rarely, and then only under the most
favorable circumstances, perhaps exclusively in spring, and, most
especially, only when the woman is ready for it. Then, when in
the arms of the man she loves, the vagina, in sympathy with the
active movements of the womb, becomes distended at the touch of
the turgescent, but not fully erect, penis, "flashes open and
draws in the male organ." "All animals," he adds, "have sexual
intercourse by the male organ being _drawn_, not forced, into the
female. I have been borne out in this by friends who have seen
horses, camels, mules and other large animals in the coupling
season. What is more absurd, for instance, than to say that an
entire _penetrates_ the mare? His penis is a sensitive, beautiful
piece of mechanism, which brings its light head here and there
till it touches the right spot, when the mare, _if ready_, takes
it in. An entire's penis could not penetrate anything; it is a
curve, a beautiful curve which would easily bend. A bull's,
again, is turned down at the end and, more palpably still, would
fold on itself if pressed with force.
