19th Century Anti-Masturbation Device

[calloway]

Remember this the next time you think you're having a tough week...

This metal device is one of a number of similar devices which were invented in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries to prevent masturbation. A leather strap which would have kept it in place is now missing. Until the early 1900s, many people regarded masturbation as harmful to a person’s health, and it was blamed for a variety of ailments, including insanity.

I'd hate to get a boner with that thing on.

I'd hate to get a boner with that thing on.

But if you get one, it will be a good one.

Handshakes with an old friend would be hard to come by!

If I got an erection wearing that device people in close vicinity would be killed by shrapnel.

Well to me, those antiquated methods are still more appealing than the modern-age anti-masturbation devices.

Like this one:

Isn't that how porn stars get the curve in their dick?

You are right, it is such a barbaric device. The ones I have in my dungeon are made of plastic - so much easier to put through the dishwasher than metal ones.
