Jesus christ, it feels like everyday I learn a new dreadful horror about American life. How the fuck have we not run out of these creepy facts yet? The country is soo fucked up, I swear to god... It's honestly hard to belive it's a real place, it didn't really sink in how much of a shit hole it is until I saw it my self... It's a twilight world where pain is a virtue for some reason.
Wait, was/is that only a thing here‽
Edit: misread. I thought you asked what this was about. Yeah, I'm sure it wasn't just here.
~~Men would sometimes have doctors add an extra stitch to women after childbirth to make them tighter. I think I've even heard sometimes doctors did it without concent of either party. Some women didn't even know it was done until they had complications and found out.~~
It's called the husband stitch and it is exactly as horrid as it seems if not moreso. Hopefully a dying trend.
