Masturbation: Most dangerous techniques
Men and women will go to great lengths to give themselves sexual satisfaction. Sometimes the results are not what was hoped for. One book mentions the case of a man who tried to masturbate by putting his penis into the sucking end of a vacuum-cleaner. The result was that all the skin was sucked off the penis. This method of masturbation "is not therefore recommended." P. Mantegazza has instanced the case of a penis caught in a bayonet tube and in the bath tub faucet. Many similar such cases are known to doctors and diligent researchers.

Masturbation: Highest frequency
According to Kinsey maximum masturbation rates were to be found in children under the age of fifteen. For this age group the maximum frequency of masturbation was in excess of twenty-three times a week. Some females surveyed had experienced orgasm from this source as many as thirty or more times in a week. Some energetic females had masturbated to orgasm as many as one hundered times in a single hour! But some women only tried it once a month. Kinsey concluded that "the range of variation in almost every type of sexual activity seems to be far greater among females."

Masturbation: Youngest participant
There is copious evidence (much of it quoted by Kinsey) of children masturbating at all ages from a few months old onwards. Kinsey mentions one record of a seven-month-old infant and records of five infants under one year of age who were observed in masturbation. Some of the cited evidence includes Townsend (five cases under one year of age); Talmey (one case of nine months); Spitz (rocking and genital play observed in over half of 248 children under one year of age), etc.

Masturbation: Most popular fantasy
Among masturbating females sixty per cent, according to Kinsey, indulge in heterosexual fantasy. This is hardly surprising since most females are heterosexual; only ten per cent of women had homosexual fantasies while masturbating.

Masturbation: Least popular fantasy
Not many women fantasise about sexual contact with animals. In the Kinsey survey only one per cent of women masturbated while fantasising about animals. Four times as many as this had sadomasochistic fantasies during "self-stimulation."

Masturbation: Most frequent by social class
One of the curious things about sexual behaviour is that it correlates - in frequency, variety, etc. - with social class. Kinsey found that masturbation was more common in educated classes than in those groups concerned with unskilled or manual labour. Of all classes the professional groups masturbate most.

First homosexual marriage
If marriage is desirable in any way that does not hinge upon procreation then there can be no reason in logic why the homosexual marriage should not exist as a social counterpart to the more frequent heterosexual equivalent. Some groups have urged such a course, and some societies have been prepared to tolerate such an arrangement. California has recently seen a homosexual marriage between two men, and not long ago - in 1969 - a priest in a Rotterdam church conducted a marriage service for two homosexuals.
