Catfight over?
 

It seems like the catfight is over and Katysails has slunk off
dragging one paw and is probably licking her wounds. . .

No, Mr Sails put a DVD player in the machine that was more interesting than
this discussion..."Underworld"...I only post here when there's nothing
better to do...

About as likely as Sheena, Warrior Princess, taking up knitting.

What is the origin of hysteria?

Those of you who think that hysteria and hysterectomy may be related are
correct. One who is hysterical has the roots of one's behavior in one's
womb, etymologically speaking. This seems to limit hysteria to people who
have wombs: women! That is originally what the word hysteric referred to,
"a neurotic condition in women" that was also known as "the vapours". It
was thought to be rooted in disturbances in the womb, an idea that went all
the way back to ancient Greece. Of course, we now know that that is not the
case, and hysteric can apply to anyone. It entered English in the mid-17th
century from French hysterique. The ultimate source is Greek hustera
"womb".

The word hysteria was coined in the early 19th century as a noun form of
hysteric. The Latin uterus is related.

Having posted here for a long while and witnessing masses of hysterical men
posting away, I think your theory is pretty well shot...unless they're all
really something else????
