Alice B. Stockham 
Karezza 
Ethics of Marriage

Alice B. Stockham took ‘KAREZZA’ from the Italian term ‘carezza’ meaning petting or gentle stroking. Because of birth control as well as ‘spiritual exaltation’ she pled for a radical change of sexual behavior. She was convinced, that there was a tremendous difference between the usual copulation ending with orgasm respectively ejaculation and the sexual merging according to the Karezza technique without a climax. In spite of the ‘sexual revolutions’ during the 20th century her Karezza method has been generally ignored until today. But it may give men and women a chance to control the sexual drive by means of their own mental power which can be successfully trained.
