Hysteria and it's cure - NOT political
In times past Hysteria was used to make female sexuality a clinical disease, medical staff (so to speak) were expected to treat it. They could massage parts of the anatomy, sometimes relaxing the patient with drugs and alcohol later they could use vibrating massage machines (often powered directly from the mains). Hysteria was incurable and women were allowed to have regular visits from the doctor or midwife to help relieve the symptoms.

So guys and gals with female partners, you know what to do to stop hysteria now go do it.

Oh, and never describe any woman as hysterical because she has every right to bounce you off the ceiling and all four walls - whilst I cheer her on

1. Yes, hence the root 'hyste' in there.
Referring to the female reproductive system.
