    The 18th century is also when male doctors started taking over childbirth and pushing midwives out.

    Women started dying more in these new maternity hospitals because the doctors didn’t believe the nurses and midwives that it was important to wash their hands between patients. They started calling these maternity hospitals “Houses of Death”.

    Apparently the chainsaw was invented by doctors.

    Terrifying. I bet chainsaws were invented before good anesthetics.
