In the Next Room


I love my friends. The other day, my girlfriend Barrie invited me to watch a "Period piece on vibrators" -- as she put it. The play entitled: "In the Next Room" about the late 18th century plague of female (and male) hysteria and its usage of a plug in medical device which 'alleviates unnecessary tension'.

Needless to say, it was hilarious. 
Not to mention its cap on our lack of knowledge in that era. It always astounds me when I hear of the methodology used in that age. Although I'm sure there were some inaccuracies, the idea that women/ new mothers didn't need to feel sexual pleasure doesn't surprise me. 
I've heard in several instances, some women these days still have never/ don't know how to have an orgasm organically.
I feel sorry for those women.
