The expression "nymphomaniac" should have originated in the Song Dynasty, and was "carried forward" in novels of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The most classic among them are Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu in "A Dream of Red Mansions"!
Daiyu burying flowers is an unprecedented act of nymphomaniac!
The original meaning of "nymphomaniac" is a person who is obsessed with flowers, grass and other plants or obsessed with beautiful scenery!
So "nymphomaniac" was actually a neutral term at the beginning, applicable to both men and women!
Later, women were compared to flowers, and those who were obsessed with beauties like flowers and jade were said to be "nymphomaniacs"!
At first, "nymphomaniac" was specifically reserved for men; it is said that Li Longji was the biggest "nymphomaniac" in history!
The second senior brother in "Journey to the West" is also a classic "nymphomaniac". Not only does he "miss" Gao Laozhuang's wife, but he also often encounters beautiful beauties, even goblins, who often "feel nymphomaniac"!
And Wang Ying, the short-legged tiger in "Water Margin" is also a "nymphomaniac"!
The classic manifestations of a nymphomaniac are as follows: eyes are dazed and blurred; drool drips from the corners of the mouth; a "smirk" that one thinks is charming appears on the face; mumbling or screaming to oneself!
