Multiple Orgasm in the Human Male

<< Sources of Outlet >>

An examination of the sources of outlet of the younger adolescent males indicates that their higher rates of total outlet are not consequent upon an increased frequency in each and every kind of sexual activity. On the contrary, nearly all of the increased frequency comes from masturbation, premarital intercourse, and the homosexual (Tables 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78).

Figure 91. Relation of age at onset of adolescence to frequencies of masturbation,
pre-marital intercourse with companions, and homosexual outlet

Based on single males.
Relative lengths of bars show mean frequencies for each adolescent group.
Effects shown as continuing up to 10 years for a grade school group (0-8);
and up to 20 years for a college group (13+).

Masturbation. While 90 per cent of the younger-maturing boys are involved in masturbation during their early teens, only 60 per cent of the late-maturing boys are involved in that same period. In successive five-year periods the number of earlier-adolescent males who are masturbating is 10 per cent to 15 per cent higher than the number of later-adolescent males who are so involved. Ultimately, nearly 99 per cent of the younger-adolescent boys have some experience in masturbation, while only 93 per cent of the later-adolescent boys are ever involved (Table 73, Figure 92). The younger-maturing boys have about twice as much masturbation as the late-maturing males during the early adolescent years, and 50 to 60 per cent more masturbation between 16 and 25 years of age, if they remain single. The frequencies calculated for the active population (i.e., for that portion of the population that is involved in this activity at all) are definitely higher in every age period for the males who matured first (Table 72). At this college level, these higher frequencies in masturbation are the chief source of the higher total outlets of the younger-maturing males.

Figure 92. Relation of age at onset of adolescence to accumulative incidence of masturbation

Based on lifetime histories of males of the college level.
Each adolescent group maintains Its relative position for 20 or more years.

In the case of the male we recognized differences in the patterns of sexual behavior which correlated to a considerable extent with the age at which he became adolescent . In general, the males who turned adolescent at earlier ages more promptly became active sexually, became involved in more types of sexual activity, had higher frequency rates in each type of activity, and had higher rates of total outlet. Such correlations with the age of the female at the time she turns adolescent are, however, hardly observable in our data.

The number of females who ultimately masturbated (the accumulative incidences, Table 31f) and the number who were masturbating in any single five-year period (the active incidences, Table 34f) were not particularly different among the girls who had turned adolescent at twelve, thirteen, and fourteen years of age. A few more of the females who had turned adolescent by eleven may have masturbated, and a bit fewer of those who turned adolescent at fifteen.

The frequencies with which the average masturbating female had experienced self-induced orgasm ( the active median frequencies), the average frequencies within the group (the active mean frequencies), and the averages for the total sample including both the masturbating and the non-masturbating females (the total mean frequencies ), show little variation and no trend which correlates with the ages at which the females had turned adolescent.

Neither did the proportion of the female’s total outlet which was derived from masturbation seem to depend upon the age at which she had turned adolescent. The factors which are responsible for the correlations between the age at which the male turns adolescent and the nature of his subsequent sexual activity seem not to be operative in the female.
