Of Women, Hysteria and Vibrators

Hysteria

A mental condition that creates excessive uncontrollable emotions that are thought to be only happening on women. Hysteria is derived from the greek word of Uterus (Hystera).

The Clinical Solution to Hysteria


The actual medical solution (discovered since the 19th century) that had helped many women suffering from Hysteria was actually the Vibrator! (WTF??)

The lack of sexual gratification caused the uterus to be light and dry due to lack of fluids and this was found to be one of the major causes of Hysteria. Before the solution was invented, womenfolk actually went to a physician to have their genitals massaged by male physicians! ( Female physicians were quite rare back then ). The vibrator was created eventually because the male physician hands were too tired! (WTF??).

That physician massaging skills must have been so good that women kept referring friends and by the time his reputation grew far and wide, I doubt, those whom came for his massage, if they are even diagnosed with Hysteria at all in the first place. ( If you know what I mean ).

For more reading, visit Wikipedia's entry on Hysteria and Vibrators.
Or if you prefer to watch a movie on the history of how the Vibrator came about and the physicians involved, you may wanna read up on this movie, Hysteria , a 2011 film.






Was the AA or AAA battery then invented to create portability for the Vibrators?

Good Beef!

I was having a late night chat with fellow W124 enthusiasts when the topic turned to food.

As one of the owners was a cook, he suggested a good place to buy beef and talked us through how to cook a good piece of steak. From him, it was learnt that there is this place that retails beef and other meat at wholesale prices.

The name of the place is QB Foods and it seems that they import their meat and could possibly be the supplier to local supermarkets. They do have an online ordering system and items can be picked up at their warehouse in Chin Bee Crescent.

After calling QB Foods to enquire more about the meat, they suggested a retail shop ( Foodie Market Place )  which opens on weekends until 6pm. And their prices are the same as what QB Foods offered. Foodie Market Place is located at 225 Outram Road, Singapore 169038.

The Concept of Life and Heaven

Read a post on Facebook from Victor Khoo's wall asking what is Heaven....

My personal belief is that Heaven is a concept created by the ancients with foresight..

Knowing that in their time, it was impossible to change people beyond their own selfish attitudes. So they left behind scriptures and called for followers whom were willing to keep these scriptures so that they can transcend generations to a time when Utopia can be achieved.

For Utopia to be achieved, people must be selfless and kind and do not need any policing in order for them to comply with the general rule of doing good and being kind. If there is a Heaven, it will be here on Earth if Utopia can be achieved.


On this same day, a discussion amongst colleagues raised the question about life and death and how one can prevent or delay death by living more healthily.

I offered my 2 cents on the subject and off the top of my head, I blabbered that Death is not random in the natural world. If the subject is unable to cope in the environment he or she is thrown in, they will have to evolve or be extinct.

Eg. A man live to his 40s living life healthily without indulging in any vices only to realise he has terminal lung cancer.

Eg. A woman lives to her 90s, heavily smoking her entire adult life, and is still alive today.

Some call it genes.. I prefer to call it merely Natural Selection.
The fittest survive....

The weaker of the species will have to die in order to prevent pollution to the gene pool.
