[113] In England aberration of the sexual instinct, or the tendency of men
to feminine occupations and of women to masculine occupations, had been

[115] A full and interesting account of Hoessli and his book is given by
Karsch in the _Jahrbuch fuer sexuelle Zwischenstufen_, Bd. v, 1903, pp.

[116] "Eugen Duehren" (Iwan Bloch) remarks, however (_Neue Forschungen ueber
den Marquis de Sade und seine Zeit_, p. 436), that de Sade in his _Aline
et Valcour_ seems to recognize that inversion is sometimes inborn, or at
least natural, and apt to develop at a very early age, in spite of all
provocations to the normal attitude. "And if this inclination were not
natural," he makes Sarmiento say, "would the impression of it be received
in childhood?... Let us study better this indulgent Nature before daring
to fix her limits.
