For it is written, to the one with much juice, much deliciousness will be given unto him. Much love to the juicy.

A recently surfaced 1864 letter provides a glimpse into a little-discussed affliction among Civil War soldiers – chronic masturbation.
The handwritten note by Confederate Lt. William Dandridge Pitts inquires about the condition of his brother Charles, who was discharged from the army in 1862 due to an unspecified “illness.” Charles was residing at the Western Lunatic Asylum in Virginia.
According to Charles’ doctor and accounts from fellow soldiers, his illness was a relentless addiction to masturbation. “I have had some conversation with the physician who attended my brother previous to his going to the asylum,” Lt. Pitts wrote, “and he advises me…that [Charles] was addicted to masturbation, while in camp.”
The letter highlights the mental health toll of the war, even before combat began. Soldiers forced to endure their comrades’ “self-pollution” no doubt developed deep psychological scars.
While masturbation remained taboo in the Victorian era, it was pervasive enough in the military to earn the nickname “Johnny Reb.” The irony of this affliction among troops from Virginia, the “state for lovers,” was surely not lost on the Pitts family.
The letter survives in excellent condition despite its delicate subject matter. This “director’s cut” offers intimate insight into secret struggles in Civil War ranks.

In 1972, Mo Abad was just six years old when he was pulled under a moving vehicle while walking home from a football game in Huddersfield. The accident left him with severe injuries to his groin, resulting in a fleshy tube for a penis, an inability to have sex, and the need to sit down to urinate. Mo, who now resides in Edinburgh, recounted in a conversation with LadBible last year that he was given a mere 12 hours to survive after the accident occurred. The impact had completely destroyed one testicle, while the other was pushed into his groin area.
Mo avoided discussing the incident for many years and refrained from forming intimate relationships with women, apprehensive about their potential reactions. However, his fortunes took a turn in 2012 when skilled surgeons implanted a £70,000 pump-up bionic bulge for him. The surgical team extracted skin from his arm and inserted an inflatable implant, enabling Mo to attain erections. By pressing a button located in the scrotum, two oblong-shaped balloons fill with saline solution, giving Mo the ability to achieve an erection.
This surgical intervention, known as a phalloplasty, was performed at University College Hospital in London, where surgeons complete an average of one bionic penis attachment per month.
