A pedant writes: This is a mis-spelling of the more correct onanism. Onan is a person described in the Bible (book of Genesis). He was the second son of Judah. His name is the origin for the sexual term onanism (synonym of [masturbation]), which many consider to be based on a misinterpretation as it more properly refers to spilling seed... After his older brother Er died Onan was to marry Er's widow Tamar. According to the Bible, when he had [sexual intercourse] with his brother's wife he spilt his seed upon the ground (Genesis 38:7-9); the Bible says that he did this because (under the custom of levirate marriage) the child would not be considered his, but his late brother's. In response to this [transgression], God killed Onan.
