Now I'm really informed ! After reading the entire posted speech of that doctor's cure for insanity, I am at last convinced that my mother was actually serious in threatening to cut off my "pee-pee" when I was only five years old ! About the sixth or eighth (but who was counting?) time that she walked in on me while I was vigoursly masturbating, in the bathroom, she sent me to her sewing room to bring back her big scissors. She stood me in the bath-tub, bare naked, while she sat on the toilet lid next to the tub.
Even writing this short account many, many years later, causes my heart-rate to increase, so you know that I was terrified as she demonstrated how, if I ever was seen "playing with myself" again, she would have to snip it right off, to prevent my nasty habit causing me to become insane !! I didn't stop doing it, but you can be sure that SHE never caught me at it again. I'm sure she knew, though. She was what was known, 'way back then, as a Trained Home Nurse, and worked for several different doctors, nursing their patients in their own homes, as was a common in those days.
As the years went by, I was satisfied in my own mind that her threat and demonstration was pure bluff and made only to frighten me into behaving. Now, after reading that post, I am sure that she really believed that penectomy was the only sure cure, as it's
beyond belief that she had not discussed the matter with the doctors she worked with.
Anyway, she planted the fertile seed, and as the years rolled around, and I kept enjoying masturbation as well as other "forbidden" sexual pleasures, I always knew, deep down, that one day that "naughty thing" HAD to be cut off. It was only justice, I thought. Would have saved a lot of later mental conflict had she performed her duty then, I now think.
