… fortunately for you, I have a treatment that won’t cost much. No, you can’t watch. Also, there’s a discount if you pay for a full year in advance.
Rough time to be a woman. ☕

Modern day vibrators are a silver lining to this time period lol

I’m not a fan of this use of “whom”.
cattywampas@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Because it’s incorrect.
victorz@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Exactly the reason why, indeed.
bitjunkie@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Slightly smarter dumb-dumbs get corrected a lot so they just always use the “more proper” sounding one while still not actually understanding the rule
Janx@piefed.social 2 months ago
It’s like YouTubers who say “thee” because they think it’s a more formal version of “the”. Drives me crazy…
Janx@piefed.social 2 months ago
But it does rhyme with “womb”, if you’re composing slam poetry.

You joke, but I’m currently studying the history of my area’s mental health system and people believed giving birth and lactating made women insane.
Pacattack57@lemmy.world 2 months ago
They were describing post partum symptoms most likely. Pretty rough stuff for some people. Some people can get ptsd from it.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yup. And what’s worse, you can temporarily alleviate the symptoms by getting pregnant. I know someone with 13 kids who, uh, self medicated that way.
Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The solution is obviously cocaine.
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 2 months ago
They actually got their clit rubbed by the doctor. Then some doctor got tired of fingering many women and invented the vibrator.

I was surprised to learn that there are many women who have never had an orgasm. Why must we shame the woman? It feels like a very male-centric outlook to view orgasms as essential to sex. Of course, one would assume that one could take matters into their own hands, so to speak, but I’ve been told it’s not as simple as that.
Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
There was a study about womens sexual satisfaction in long term relationships and a high percentage said they were not satisfied.
Its not just about orgasms specifically I’d bet, and unfortunately a lot of men don’t really think about the womans pleasure during sex, they get off and then they’re done.
Of course I’m sure there’s not really a way to blanket say what the problem ultimately is as it depends on the situation/people.
YeahIgotskills2@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yep, I think it’s a mixed bag and isn’t always just about male sexual selfishness. I think it’s common to conflate a perceived ‘failure’ on the man’s part with selfishness, when in reality it’s often the opposite. I expect many man feel pressure to get their partners ‘over the line’ and that in itself presents insecurities and psychological barriers that are often ridiculed but are a manifestation of that pressure. As always communication is always key, and improving that is something that men and women can only benefit from.

I myself don’t view orgasms as essential to sex. At least not anymore. I am a bit saddened that my gf says she has never had an orgasm. And I don’t think anyone in particular is to blame here.

it has never not been a rough time to be a woman lmao
Soulg@ani.social 2 months ago
No but things have certainly improved somewhat
zemo@lemmy.world 2 months ago
It has improved massively, at least in the west. Saying “somewhat” is a massive underestimation and undermindes the fight of women for hundreds of years.

I’m a man, but I like it when my wife has orgasms. Often I do, too. Sometimes the two coincide and I really like that.
I suspect men of old also loved their lovers, though not universally. Hopefully the ladies came as well.

Wilco@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
Yes, but lets not discuss the fainting spells and the massage treatments that noble women received to relieve their bouts of “hysteria”.
Honestly, I wonder how much of that is real versus made up for slander “Let them eat cake” was not quite ancient history in the Victorian era.

Hysterical?

Having 4 babies in 1 year in the 1800s had to be quite the achievement
tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Not impossible though. Two in January, two in November.
victorz@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Or just the four of them together in one go I guess.

Only if they survive until birth.
