If you keep researching, you'll find this was far from the only such device. There was a bit of a boom market in the 1700s/1800s based around the idea of replacing self-control with little torture devices.

Question about all such devices: did they also tie/handcuff the boys' hands behind their backs to stop them from REMOVING the contraption?

"Nightfall" sounds so much cooler than "wet dream".

TIL wet dreams were called 'nightfall' for some reason. Makes for a confusing headline.

Sounds like the same shit that happened in Old Testament Army Camps where people were meant to be shamed and shunned about the fact that they had both biological urges and physical reactions that manifested into shame rituals and bathing rituals.
