Unmasked, or the Science of Immorality. To Gentlemen

by Mary Edwards Walker

'Unmasked' is a curious and controversial Victorian-era text that explores the complexities of human sexuality. Written by Mary Edwards Walker, a pioneering physician and activist, the book blends scientific observations with traditional Victorian morality, offering insights into the physical and emotional aspects of human relationships. Walker's work, often seen as a blend of puritanical values and explicit discussions, reflects the evolving attitudes toward sexuality in the late 19th century. The text offers a unique blend of medical information, societal commentary, and personal perspectives, presenting a fascinating glimpse into the Victorian era and its unique approach to personal conduct.
