Translation of L'onanisme, originally published in Latin under title: Tentamen de morbis ex manustupratione. Samuel Auguste André David Tissot; 20 March 1728 - 13 June 1797) was a notable 18th century Swiss physician. L'Onanisme. Tissot's monograph influenced the negative view of masturbation. He was a well reputed Calvinist Protestant neurologist, physician, professor and Vatican adviser who practiced in the Swiss city of Lausanne. He wrote on the diseases of the poor, on masturbation, on the diseases of the men of letters and of rich people, and nervous diseases. From Wikipedia: "In 1760, he published L'Onanisme, his own comprehensive medical treatise on the purported ill-effects of masturbation. Citing case studies of young male masturbators amongst his patients in Lausanne as basis for his reasoning, Tissot argued that semen was an "essential oil" and "stimulus" that, when lost from the body in great amounts, would cause "a perceptible reduction of strength, of memory and even of reason; blurred vision, all the nervous disorders, all types of gout and rheumatism, weakening of the organs of generation, blood in the urine, disturbance of the appetite, headaches and a great number of other disorders." His treatise was presented as a scholarly, scientific work in a time when experimental physiology was practically nonexistent. The authority with which the work was subsequently treated â " Tissot's arguments were even acknowledged and echoed by luminaries such as Kant and Voltaire â " arguably turned the perception of masturbation in Western medicine over the next two centuries into that of a debilitating illness.".
