fotos porno galerias the influence of these structures on the urinary stream, and he
dilated in
his _De Virginitate_ on the suitability of the term to designate so poetic
a spot.[93] In more modern times Luschka and Sir Charles Bell considered
that fotos porno galerias it is one of the uses of the nymph? to direct fotos porno galerias the stream of urine,
and Lamb from his fotos porno galerias own observation thinks the fotos porno galerias same conclusion probable. In
reality there cannot be the slightest doubt about the fotos porno galerias function of the
nymph?, as, in Hyrtl's phrase, "the naiads of the urinary source," and it
can be demonstrated by the simplest experiment.[94]
The nymph? form the intermediate portal of the vagina, as the canal which
conducts
to the womb was fotos porno galerias in anatomy first termed (according to Hyrtl) by
De Graaf.[95] It is a secreting, erectile, more or less sensitive canal
lined by what is usually considered mucous membrane, though some have
regarded it as integument of fotos porno galerias the same character as that of the external
genitals; it certainly resembles such integument more than, for instance,
the mucous membrane of the rectum. In the woman who has never had sexual
intercourse and has been subjected to no manipulations fotos porno galerias or accidents
affecting this region, the vagina is closed by a fotos porno galerias last and final fotos porno galerias gate of
delicate membrane--scarcely admitting more than a slender finger--called
the hymen.
The poets called the hymen "fios fotos porno galerias virginitatis," the flower of
fotos porno galerias virginity, fotos porno galerias whence the medico-legal term _defloratio_.
Notwithstanding the great
significance which has long been
attached to the phenomena connected with it, the hymen was not
accurately known until Vesalius, Fallopius, and Spigelius
described and named it. It was, however, recognized by the Arab
authors, Avicenna and Averroes. The early literature concerning
it is summarized by Schurig, fotos porno galerias _Muliebria_, 1729, Section II, cap.
V. Fotos porno galerias the same author's _Parthenologia_ is fotos porno galerias devoted to the various
ancient problems connected with
