Uterine Hypochondriacs

Just read this paragraph about Victorian doctors' refusal to carry out vaginal examinations on nice Victorian ladies using a speculum. Made me , and think of you all for some reason...

'The female who has been subjected to such treatment is not the same person in delicacy and purity that she was before. The uterus, the seat of female reproductive mysteries had been violated. Medical journals reported cases of women whose minds had been poisoned by the experience: it was alleged that these women became addicted to speculum examination, and had degenerated into ‘uterine hypochondriacs’'

Victorian Bedtime couldn’t have been that exciting then if they were queueing up for the speculum

Think all the ladies of ill repute saw more of the husbands at bedtime than the wives

Now that would be more of a reason for needing the speculum

I think it was mens fear of 'womens issues'. The doctors who were unwilling to examine female patients too intimately and their obvious lack of understanding.

People in the old days were not as liberated as we are now,in fact Queen Victoria herself is said to have dismissed the existence of lesbians and female orgasms.

Such matters were just not spoken of in polite society and a doctor,probing a womans vagina with a speculum would probably have had no idea what he was looking for.Many womens complaints were dismissed as 'hysteria'.

I don't think Queen Victoria dismissed the idea of female orgasms. She loved sex and her diaries were so erotic her daughter Louisa burned a lot of them after her death. After her beloved Prince Albert died (who had his piercing for her sexual gratification) she had intimate relationships with John Brown and a young Indian servant.
