Entitled: ""Appliance for the treatment of masturbation."" Masturbation is the sexual stimulation of one's own genitals for sexual arousal or other sexual pleasure, usually to the point of orgasm. Masturbation has been depicted in art since prehistoric times and is mentioned and discussed in very early writings. Starting in the 17th century, doctors began to believe that masturbation caused insanity, disease, dysfunction and poor character.
