In the entire history of humans, this is the strangest idea we have ever thought of.
1. The Breast Ripper for Unmarried Mothers During the Dark Ages it was believed that the unwed mother would destroy society. In an effort to prevent women from getting pregnant in public, breast rippers were used to tear off the breasts of the pregnant mother.
This way the "bastards" would starve and other women would think twice before getting themselves pregnant.
2. Animal criminals It was common for animals to be sentenced for crimes and tried as if they were humans. Pigs roamed freely in many common areas in the city and were often prosecuted for the murder of children.
3. During the dark ages it was believed about witches that if you saw a woman from her vagina to half of her head, it would prove whether she was a witch or not. A witch would pretend to be dead and later her soul would resurrect another woman. However, if you burn them, a witch cannot survive.
4. Women couldn't go on top The Christian church was so sexually averse that even cowgirl sex positions became compulsory. A woman riding cowgirl was considered a sin because it put a woman in a dominant position of sexual power over a man.
According to the Church, any sexual act that could only be used for pleasure and not procreation was also considered a sin and therefore illegal and punishable with lifetime sentences in a civil prison or dungeon.
5. A person's face tells you everything about them The idea that humans naturally attribute personality traits to the animals they look like stems from this.
5. Phrenology This was a scientific belief that the shape of your head determined your personality, intelligence, morality, and criminality.
6. Abortionists used condoms as a witch Women who needed contraceptives or abortions could see women who called themselves witches, but these women did not sell condoms.
Control pills. They made magical amulets that were supposed to keep a woman from getting pregnant.
7. Female Hysteria From the 17th century until the 1950s, the medical community believed that if a woman was alone for too long or was widowed, a mental illness called female hysteria would set in. There were several treatments. A woman would be given deep water massages on her vagina in the hospital to ease her hysteria.
