Public domain literary figures considered in terms of their probable familiarity with cock and ball torture:
Count Dracula: Sneers at it as a newfangled fad. Has definitely tried it at least once anyway.
Sherlock Holmes: Has cracked at least one case thanks to his
worryingly extensive knowledge of the practice; absolutely refuses to
clarify whether this knowledge is theoretical or practical.
Ichabod Crane: Oddly, no; his taste in discipline runs more toward good old-fashioned floggings – both giving and receiving.
The Phantom of the Opera: Don Juan Triumphant features a whole song about it.
Jay Gatsby: Has books about it in his library, but is far too much of a weenie to actually give it a try.
Dr. Jekyll: You know those unspecified youthful indiscretions he felt so guilty about that drove him to create the serum in the first place?
Mr. Hyde: Take a wild guess.
