My point is that nobody argues that there were supposed mystical 'masturbation police'. All Freedom Lover did was point out the sexual ethic of the Puritans was unhealthily restrictive.
Do you have
documentation for the claim that recommending men refrain from masturbation for moral or other reasons is physically or psychologically unhealthy?
Or, in a larger sense, that their sexual mores in general were "
unhealthily restrictive"?
Could it just possibly be that that is an
opinion? No more or less valid than the
Puritan's opinions on the subject(s)?
Furthermore, one based on a presumption of the practical details of their doctrines on moral sexual behavior?
