ool, who fully
recognizes the risks of school-life, and to the discussion on sexual vice
in schools, started by an address by the Rev. J.M. Wilson, head-master of
Clifton College, in the English _Journal of Education_, 1881-82.
[244] With regard to the importance of the sexual emotions generally and
their training, see the well-known book by Edward Carpenter, _Love's
Coming of Age_; Professor Gurlitt ("Knabenfreundschaften,"
_Sexual-Probleme_, Oct., 1909) also upholds the intimate friendships of
youth, which in his own experience have not had even a suspicion of
homosexuality.

remarks by an experienced master in one of the largest English public
schools, which I have brought forward in vol. i of these _Studies_,
"Auto-erotism," 3d ed., 1910.
[246] See, e.g., Professor J.R. Angell, "Some Reflections upon the
Reaction from Coeducation," _Popular Science Monthly_, Nov., 1902; also
Moll's _Sexual Life of the Child_, ch. ix, and for a general discussion of
coeducation, S. Poirson, _La Coeducation_, 1911.

[249] Raffalovich, _Uranisme et Unisexualite_, 1896, p. 16. He remarks
that the congenital invert who has never had relations with women, and
whose abnormality, to use Krafft-Ebing's distinction, is a perversion and
not a perversity, is much less dangerous and apt to seduce others than the
more versatile and corrupt person who has known all methods of
gratification.
[250] See, e.g., Moll, _Die Kontraere Sexualempfindung_, ch. xi; Forel,
_Die Sexuelle Frage_, ch. xiv; Naecke, "Die Behandlung der
Homosexualitaet," _Sexual-Probleme_, Aug., 1910; Hirschfeld, _Die
Homosexualitaet_, ch. xxii.

[252] This is also the opinion of Numa Praetorius, _Jahrbuch fuer sexuelle
Zwischenstufen_, Jan., 1913, p. 222.
[253] See, especially, Sadger, _Zeitschrift fuer Sexualwissenschaft_, Heft
12, 1908; also _Jahrbuch fuer sexuelle Zwischenstufen_, vol. ix, 1908;
Sadger's methods are criticised by Hirschfeld
