Content: "The Jewel in the Lotus deals with every phase of sexual life in the Orient - heterosexual, homosexual, autoerotic and bestial. "In addition to other revealing information this book provides the religious origins of sexual practices. Thus prostitution (male as well as female) evolved from ancient types of sacrifice. Temple prostitution, consecrated to certain deities, was common in some Oriental cultures until recent periods. Sexual debauchery was a customary climax of pilgrimages. Circumcision, which also included sexual amputations in women, evolved out of sacrificial rites. Of particular interest was the practice of eunuchry, which began early in human history as a sacrificial rite and then, in a complex evolution, became a major factor in the development of the Negro slave trade, influenced harem life and governmental administration and played, altogether, an astonishing role in the history of the Orient.

Quote from this book "From the very cradle, Egyptian fellaheen (peasants) were prompted to enjoy every variety of sexual gratification. In youth they engaged in excessive genital manipulation and sodomy, then proceeded to forms of bestiality (to be discussed later). Not a few of them eventually destroyed their manhood and became strict, neurotic pederasts. Satyriasis and nymphomania were common among them, erection and nocturnal and other emissions through reflex action were overcommon. 'Thrust thy finger into the fundament of a Toork (Egyptian),' said the Arabs, 'and he will pollute his raiments. Brush past him from the fore, and his carnal implement stab thee ere ye can run away.' Another very old saying discloses that 'the Toork would much rather defecate than have intercourse with a woman, for the inestimable pleasure derived thereby.'" p186 Secondhand booksellers |
