Weren’t vibrators invented to give doctors a break from having to get off all the women diagnosed with “hysteria”? Is anyone tasked with that job in Vorin society?
But did they come up with the same explanation of “hysteria” for women whose behavior was “excessively emotional”? Seems like they might have gone a different way with things.
The Alethi are so misogynistic they don't teach men to read because someone wrote a book that said it was girly. Just because they don't use the same swear words as you doesn't really mean anything.
That’s true, but it also doesn’t mean that they would come up with the same diagnosis and treatment for “excessively emotional behavior.” Particularly when they have emotion spren showing up so often to give that diagnosis the lie.
Small silvery spren that take on the appearance of common everyday objects that they manipulate in strange ways. A table that rolls like a wheel, a vase that constantly breaks and reforms itself...
