Studies in the Psychology of Sex, Volume 3: Analysis of the Sexual Impulse; Love and Pain; The Sexual Impulse in Women
Ellis, Havelock
Sex; Sex (Psychology)
"In our case physical and psychical intensity of emotion have
gone hand in hand. I have become specialized to one woman,
despite an erotic endowment certainly not meager. The pervasive
fragrance makes one adore the whole sex, but my wife does not
interpret this homage in a sexually promiscuous sense. We both
agree in the principle that if one cannot hold the affection of
the other there is no title to it. Tarde says that constancy in
love is rarely anything but a voyage of discovery round the
beloved object. I am perpetually making fresh discoveries. But
her constancy, I mean the high level of her passion, is
independent of discoveries."
FOOTNOTES:
[230] "A practical question arising out of the foregoing is whether such
semen should be committed to the vagina? Its presence is known to me by
constitutional symptoms (toxic). It is the last to be expelled, and its
degenerate germ-cells have no chance against those of the normal fluid
deposited in preceding acts, supposing that to be retained. But it may
well happen that the prior emissions only reach the pouch, whereas the
last is injected into the womb itself. I have frequently had the sense of
the orifices of meatus and cervix matching directly, especially when she
had powerful orgasm (including two conceptions), and of the semen being
sucked from me rather than occluded in its exit, as also happens,
requiring me to relax the urge a little. At 18 to 19 the semen of a
'pollution' has left tender red patches where it dried on the neighboring
skin, and deep straw-colored stains in the linen."
