    "Symptoms of hysteria included anxiety, sleeplessness,
    breathlessness, expressing anger,
    being too sexually reserved, being too overtly sexual,
    the presence of vaginal lubrication,
    and a tendency to cause trouble for others."
    Also known as being ... y'know.... human......

    I definitely remember seeing (as a child, '60s and '70s) catalogs that included largish bullet-shaped "facial massagers". As I grew a little older, it dawned on me just what these actually were. I have no doubt that the women perusers of these catalogs knew exactly what these were for. Comstock Act be damned! Kind of comical, but nice that they were available.

      My husband had an old great aunt who was visiting his grandparents the same time as we were one time and she actually had one of those things out and was rubbing her face and neck with it! That's how they were advertised! We had a hard time keeping a straight face until we got out of there 😂

    I appreciate your frank no nonsense approach. The sexual repression in media and education is really sad. Overall I think it just hurts the most naive and vulnerable.

    The United Arab Emirates draws in millions of visitors, with Dubai and Abu Dhabi especially popular.
    But visitors should be aware that taking sex toys into the country or even ordering them to be delivered there is illegal.
    Not only can they be confiscated, the person who owns the toy can also be prosecuted.

    Vietnam is a growing tourist destination. But it doesn't like tourists who bring sex toys with them. In 2011, authorities made buying sex toys or bringing them into the country illegal. And if visitors are found bringing sex toys into the country by customs, they will be confiscated.

    I saw Hysteria mainly because I typically love movies that include Maggie Gyllenhaal. I was really unfamiliar with the ideas and topics presented in the film a priori. Afterwards my reaction was sort of "that's interesting".

    Vibrators as a cure for hysteria? Hmm. That might almost sound fun if it didn't also seem abusive and exploitive.

    When giving talks about scientific or quasi-scientific topics, please use correct terminology regarding the words theory and hypotheses. You used the word theory in a pedestrian way rather than a correct scientific way. You should have used the term hypothesis instead of theory. The differences are quite distinct. Using them incorrectly can form significantly wrong ideas.

  • @gooddaysahead1
    @gooddaysahead1 9 місяців тому

    Just to be more efficient, can you use the term wymyn to cover everyone who believes they are women rather than always adding, ... And those with vulvas...
    God it gets irritating. Same goes for myn. This remark has nothing to do with gender. It just has to do with the efficiency of language. 😊

    • @emilylunarpumpkin
      @emilylunarpumpkin 9 місяців тому +1

      You have a good point especially when it comes to historical terms. I am sure gender fluidity, dysmorphia, choice of transitioning or any variation of the current displays of gender and sexual expression would not have been so prevalent and a lot of texts would have just stated men or women. We shouldn't feel the need to placate all of the different terms all the time to avoid offending people. If they are happy, free and comfortable in their skin and identity they will naturally take any content on its own merit and substitute labels in their heads, as opposed to becoming keyboard warriors.

      @emilylunarpumpkin thanks for your thoughtful response. I am not pushing any agenda, just trying to commit to communication that is not guided by fear of retribution, like guilt shaming. Ask people of color. They're not impressed by virtue signaling.
