The homosexual man finds delight in contrectando virilia alterius that is simply incomprehensible to the normal individual. The value he or she lays in contrectando et conspiciendo virilia aut muliebria shows at once the diseased condition. The inverted boy and girl are constantly on the alert for the opportunity to see nude men, respectively nude women. They frequent bathing establishments. They find pleasure in looking at statutes of nude males, respectively females, and are frequent visitors of museums. The sight of nude men, respectively women, awakens in them lustful feelings, while in the presence of nude women the perverted man remains indifferent, and the same is the case with the invert woman in the presence of nude men. The perverted man has a profound longing for female clothes. He takes the greatest pleasure in the sight of female attire. He tries to dress as a woman at every opportunity. He likes to frequent masquerade balls where he can dress up as a woman and dance with women. In short, the patient has all the feelings and longings of a woman. The inverted woman, on the other hand, likes to imitate male fashions in general attire and in dressing her hair. It gives her the greatest satisfaction if she is able to dress herself entirely in men’s attire and disguise her identity. She further prefers the occupations of men and loves at every occasion to play a man’s rôle. When at a ball she likes to dance with women, and when in a hotel, she loves to discuss politics with men. In short, she feels herself a man. The inverted creatures seek, find, recognize and love one another, and often live together ut maritus maritaque. An invert woman may sometimes enter matrimony with a man, but this is done either in ignorance of her anomaly or to secure support. Otherwise a man has no sexual attraction for her. She is totally impotent of experiencing libido in congressu cum viro, although the genital glands are, as a rule, normal and their functions regular. In some inverts normal marriage is utterly impossible, the very thought of normal coition arouses disgust and horror. If the invert woman is forced to normal concarnatio (the invert male cannot even be forced, he has no erection in the presence of a woman), the feeling is the same as if she were compelled to take disgusting food or drink. For days afterwards she is nervous and miserable, while concubitus with her own sex affords her pleasure and leaves behind a feeling of comfort. The perverts are, therefore, thoroughly happy in their perverted feeling.
