Aetios von Antiocheia, Doxographie (Placita vetusta) 5, 5:
Εἰ καὶ αἱ θήλειαι προίενται σπέρμα
Whether females too release semen

1. Pythagoras, Epicurus, and Democritus say that the female releases semen as well as the male, for she has concealed testicles. (1) For this reason she also has desire for sexual intercourse.
2. Aristotle and Zeno say that she releases moist matter just like sweat from doing exercise, but not semen that results from concoction.
3. Hippo says that females release semen no less than males. However, he says, this semen does not contribute to conception of life because it falls outside the womb. Hence some females often release seed apart from males, and it is especially widows who do this.
4. <***> (2) and the bones derive from the male but the flesh from the female.
