单词 onanism
释义

onanismn.

Brit. /ˈəʊnənɪz(ə)m/, U.S. /ˈoʊnəˌnɪz(ə)m/
Origin: From a proper name, combined with an English element. Etymons: proper name Onan , -ism suffix.
Etymology: < the name of Onan (Genesis 38:9; Hebrew 'Ōnān) + -ism suffix.Onan, son of Judah, was ordered by his father to beget children with the wife of his brother who had died childless. He did not wish to beget children who would not belong to him, so he did not complete copulation but let his semen fall on the ground, for which God punished him with death. Although Onan's sin is taken by modern biblical scholars to have been failure to fulfil the obligation of levirate marriage (see Oxf. Compan. Bible (1993) at cited word), this passage has frequently been taken in the Christian (as in the Jewish) tradition to show divine condemnation of masturbation. Compare French onanisme (1760). Compare also Onania in the title of Onania, or the Heinous Sin of Self-pollution, and All its Frightful Consequences in Both Sexes, considered, published anonymously in London c1710, and subsequently appearing in numerous editions with supplements, etc., in the course of the 18th cent.
Masturbation. Also: coitus interruptus. Also figurative.
