I have discussed what may be regarded as the normally sexual influence of dancing, in the third volume of these _Studies_, "The Analysis of the Sexual Impulse." [218] The case has been recorded of a Russian who had the spontaneous impulse to self-flagellation on the nates with a rod, for the sake of sexual excitement, from the age of 6.

Kind (_Jahrbuch für Sexuelle Zwischenstufen_, Jahrgang ix, 1908, p. 58) gives the case of a young homosexual woman, a trick cyclist at the music halls, who often, when excited by the sight of her colleague in tights, would experience the orgasm while cycling before the public. [226] Janet has, however, used day-dreaming--which he calls "_reveries subconscients_"--to explain a remarkable case of demon-possession, which he investigated and cured.
