but those in whom it is both to the seat and to the private parts, these desire both active and passive love_; and to whichever part the secretion is greater, the more do they desire the corresponding kind of pleasure. Besides in some cases this occurs through habituation. Whichever act they do, a pleasurable feeling results, and so they emit semen correspondingly. Then they desire to do the act in which this most occurs, and thus this becomes in preference their custom, and a sort of second nature. Wherefore such as have been habituated to passive love not before puberty but about the time of puberty, because when they desire pleasure memory suggests what they must do, and on memory follows pleasure, acquire through habituation the desire for passive gratification _just as if they were born to it_. And if a man happen to be lewd and effeminate to begin with, all this results all the sooner).—In the Pathic then, according to _Aristotle’s_ view, the semen-vessels carry the semen not to the penis, but to the fundament, and set up there the feeling of desire and sensual craving. These are the _born Pathics_ (πεφυκότες), from whom he distinguishes the _seduced_ Pathics, who indulge in the vice as the result of habituation (ἐξ ἔθους). This is the very same view that we have already (p. 172. Note 3.) gathered from his Ethics, and which supports in the strongest way what we there made good as against _Stark_.
