“Many men… find their energies palsied by the frigid conduct of their brides. Many women, moving in a respectable sphere of life, have the idea that it is unbecoming and indecorous to meet the embraces of their husbands, or to shew any solicitude in the matter; thus directly opposing the dictates of nature, and setting themselves in opposition to one of the main purposes for which they were created. There was much pertinence in the saying attributed to the daughter-in-law of Pythagoras, ‘that the woman who goes to bed with a man, must put off her modesty with her petticoat, and put it on again with the same.’”

—Culverwell
