Women who disobeyed their husbands or performed poorly in bed were also often institutionalized or drugged, with the diagnosis of "hysterics." Turns out, they just had lousy husbands - and now, the diagnosis of "lousy husbands" is prevalent. Are there more lousy husbands now than before? Nope. They just corrected a faulty diagnosis.
