I was sure that I had seen contraptions described as chastity belts
used in the Middle Ages so I've done a quick search in LOCIS and
MELVYL to see if there is any literature. The results from MELVYL
are mailable so here they are below.
I trust you are serious. However, I'm amazed at the number of
enquiries you quoted. I hate to think what this might indicate about
Australians!
