Dib Dib Dib work it up

Baden-Powell said in the first Boy Scout Manual

You all know what it is to have at times a pleasant feeling in your private parts, and there comes an inclination to work it up with your hand or otherwise.
“Well, lots of fellows, from not knowing any better, please themselves in this way until it often becomes a sort of habit with them which they cannot get out of.
“The practice is called self abuse and the result is that the boy after time becomes weak and nervous and shy.
“He gets headaches and probably palpitation of the heart, and if he still carries it on too far he very often goes out of his mind and becomes an idiot.” …
He wrote: “The use of your private parts is not to play with when you are a boy but to enable you to get children when you are grown-up and married.
“But if you misuse them while young, you will not be able to use them when you are a man.
“Remember too that several awful diseases come from indulgence - one especially that rots away the inside of men’s mouths, their noses and eyes.”


Right, well glad thats sorted out!
