How did women deal with female problems before modern medicine?

Mike T asked:


Like vaginal problems and child birth and all these things women have to see doctors for on a regular basis. What did women do before modern medicine? Somehow they survived.

Because women today are always complaining about that stuff. They have it easy compared to women in the 1700’s and before.

What are the negative health effects of not getting enough sleep?

health
United asked:


First, I do not have insomnia, I can sleep just fine, I am just choosing not to because I can. I can stay up for two days at a time without any trouble, and I don’t use any drugs to keep me awake. Now, I am not even tired when I go to sleep at the end of the 2nd day, but I go to sleep anyway because I know I should. I have been doing this for about a month, and it appears to have no effect on my health. I exercise every day and eat right, I just think that this may somehow effect my health in the long run. Is there anything I need to worry about?

How come women get in trouble for the lamest things compared to men?

women
Eric S asked:


Men get in trouble for cheating, killing, stealing, bombing countries, violent crimes.

Women get in trouble for things such as showing too much skin, being too showy, eating chocolate, laughing too loud, gaining weight, having too much fun.

Women are like WAYYYY more innocent than men.
