So many things to think about with this topic, but one question that
comes to mind is this: When were the first images to appear in art of
individuals masturbating? Or what about the first mention in a
literary work? I can't think of anything from ancient Greece, nor
from India, etc. but
I believe there is material from ancient Egypt - a lot of things were
scratched as graffiti into walls. Don't know for literary work but most
likely in the Satyricon. - Alan

Bobby looks like he could be a race car driver, but I'm not so sure

For me the discourse is dialectical; masturbation etc. occurs among the
primate and a number of other animals. So it's a question of representa-
tion. So I would imagine that masturbation would be presenced everywhere -
even an absent discourse would indicate a problematic around the act.

This is fascinating. Given the way desire operates, one might say all sex,
