Turns out the cure for hysteria is gay sex. Freshly uncovered sources suggest that the witch doctors would prescribe lesbian affairs to women suffering from a lack of reciprocation, which was highly effective. Quote one victim, "Doctor, can I renew again? Yes, for the 69th time."
This, of course, opens up many further questions regarding the field of lesbiethics. Is a doctor, who has taken the Hippocratic Oath, ethically able to spank a patient? Should the doctor administer the treatment herself? Are there any other factors to consider? Fascinating stuff.
