A.J. Bloch, of New Orleans, has noted the case of a
woman who complained of swelling of the breasts; the gentlest
manipulation produced an orgasm, and it was found that the
swelling had been intentionally produced for the sake of this
manipulation. Moraglia in Italy knew a very beautiful woman who
was perfectly cold in normal sexual relationships, but madly
excited when her husband pressed or sucked her breasts. Lombroso
(_Archivio di Psichiatria_, 1885, fasc. IV) has described the
somewhat similar case of a woman who had no sexual sensitivity in
the clitoris, vagina, or labia, and no pleasure in coitus except
in very strange positions, but possessed intense sexual feelings
in the right nipple as well as in the upper third of the thigh.
It is remarkable that not only is suckling apt to be accompanied
by sexual pleasure in the mother, but that, in some cases, the
infant also appears to have a somewhat similar experience. This
is, at all events, indicated in a remarkable case recorded by
Fere (_L'Instinct Sexuel_, second edition, p. 257). A female
infant child of slightly neurotic heredity was weaned at the age
of 14 months, but so great was her affection for her mother's
breasts, though she had already become accustomed to other food,
that this was only accomplished with great difficulty and by
allowing her still to caress the naked breasts several times a
day.
