Once a Week Is Ample: Or, the Moderately Sensual Victorians Guide to Restraint of the Passions

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 70 pages. The Victorians were a chaste bunch - at least on the surface of it - and enjo yed nothing better than to indulge in a little repression and moralising. In cho ice quotations from eminent authorities of the period, Once A Week Is Ample reve als how to handle that most delicate issue of human existence: sex.'The personal ly secret life of men and women has never been handled more delicately, chastely , convincingly, or with more ennobling force, than is done in this book.'Sex, or conjugal and carnal relations, was not something the Victorians openly applaude d. Delicate, private, embarrassing.it was all too often a subject to be whispe red about furtively in shadowy corners. If you had to do it, it had to be done q uietly. And women didn't do it at all. It was a subject so sensitive, even Debre tt was challenged. Cautious questions require considered answers: discover them all in Once A Week Is Ample.'My constant Endeavour is to subdue Desire of the Fl esh. Am I right to do so? Will I avoid the Muddy Swamps of Weariness?''My wife i s Expectant and her Condition is Clearly Manifest. Surely this will cause Distre ss of Mind to my Sons, who are of a Delicate Age?'Once A Week Is Ample will save many a young fellow from the blast and blight of a befouled manhood, wrecked by the wretched blunderings of an ignorant youth. And many a woman, too. It is an absolute must-have for any person - the young and impressionable in particular - who might be thinking of indulging in a little forbidden fruit. Artikel-Nr. 3447i
