I think it was the majority of society who believed in Religion at the time. My media tutor has a book that states all the apparatus they would use to combat sexual urges.
And in the case of wet dreams, they would die a piece of string to the penis, and attach that to a bucket of ice-cold water. So when the man would get an erection, it would pull the string and cause the water to splash down upon him. Halting his izzy-whizzy-let's-get-busyness in its tracks.
