Note BO — Chapter XIX · HYGIENE OF CHILDHOOD

In the girl a certain kind of nocturnal ejaculation also takes place, manifested by an abundant discharge from the Bartholinian glands and the expulsion of Kristeller’s slimy plug from the cervix. These phenomena during sleep are usually of a vague kind in young girls and are seldom impressed upon their consciousness. The real pollution that awakens the sleeper and leaves its traces in the individual’s memory occurs usually only in boys, and in the female sex only, after a perfect orgasm has been experienced in the state of wakening.
