Morals_), vol. ii pp. 562-3, Leipzig, 1897. The collective
investigation made by Wagner, Wittenberg, and Hueckstaedt, as a
part of the inquiry instituted by the General Conference of the
German Societies for the Promotion of Public Morals, is certainly
the most exhaustive of which any record at present exists.

[79] Quoted by Havelock Ellis, _Studies in the Psychology of
Sex_, vol. i., 3rd ed., Davis, Philadelphia, 1910, p. 179. The
original paper is by C. W. Townsend, "Thigh Friction in Children
under One Year," Annual Meeting of the American Pediatric
Society, Montreal, 1896. Five cases are recorded by this writer,
all in female infants.
[80] Regarding the precise significance of the terms
_iomasturbation_ and _onanism_, see the author's footnote to page
87. The adjectives corresponding to those words are respectively
_masturbatory_ and _onanistic_. By German writers, _onanismus_ or
_onanie_, and _onanistisch_, are often used where, strictly
speaking, the words are inapplicable, since reference is made to
cases in which sexual gratification is obtained by direct
manipulation. In this translation, I prefer for such cases to use
the words _masturbation_ (i.e. _manustupration_) and _masturbatory_;
and to limit the use of the terms _onanism_ and _onanistic_ to cases in
which no direct use is made of the hand. Where sexual gratification is
obtained without any mechanical act at all, it to preferable to speak of
_psychical onanism_, or else to employ the general term introduced by
Havelock Ellis for the description of all varieties of self-induced
sexual stimulation and sexual gratification--whether mechanical or
psychical--viz. _auto-erotism_ (adjectival form, _auto-erotic_). See
Havelock Ellis, _Studies in the Psychology of Sex_, vol. i., 3rd ed.,
1910. Part III., "Auto-Erotism: A Study of the Spontaneous
Manifestations of the Sexual Impulse."--TRANSLATOR'S NOTE.
