Description
Duport, Gaspard. About the marks of the uninjured virginity. After the experiences of the most diverse peoples and times presented and judged from today's standpoints of anatomy and physiology. 5. Issue. 128 pp. 16,5 x 10 cm. Modern broschur (dissolved in block). Nordhausen, Ernst Friedrich Fürst, 1841. Fifth edition. Miserable and sexist theory about female virginity. The value of a woman was determined by means of her "purity", for which men referred to supposedly scientific theories and marks, but ultimately decided only by arbitrariness and sympathy. – Due to paper tanned, with flaws and marginal lesions, somewhat patchy, with damp edges and partly dissolved in the block. Very rare.
