[54] Lasège first drew attention to this sexual perversion and gave it its
generally accepted name, "Les Exhibitionistes," _L'Union Médicale_, May,
1877. Magnan, on various occasions (for example, "Les Exhibitionistes,"
_Archives de l'Anthropologie Criminelle_, vol. v, 1890, p. 456), has given
further development and precision to the clinical picture of the
exhibitionist.

[57] "Exhibitionism in its most typical form is," Garnier truly says, "a
_systematic act_, manifesting itself as the _strange equivalent of a
sexual connection_, or its _substitution_." The brief account of
exhibitionism (pp. 433-437) in Garnier's discussion of "Perversions
Sexuelles" at the International Medical Congress at Paris in 1900
(_Section de Psychiatrie: Comptes-Rendus_) is the most satisfactory
statement of the psychological aspects of this perversion with which I am
acquainted. Garnier's unrivalled clinical knowledge of these
manifestations, due to his position during many years as physician at the
Depôt of the Prefecture of Police in Paris, adds great weight to his
conclusions.
[58] The symbolism of coitus involved in flagellation has been touched on
by Eulenburg (_Sexuale Neuropathie_, p. 121), and is more fully developed
by Dühren (_Geschlechtsleben in England_, bd. ii, pp. 366, _et seq._).

overwork, and eventually adjudged insane by the courts, is recorded by

[62] Exhibitionism in epilepsy is briefly discussed by Féré, _L'Instinct
Sexuel_, second edition, pp. 194-195.
