hysteria."

The expression
"get laid" supposedly has its roots in the "Everleigh"
bordello in 1900's Chicago ("I'm going to get Everleighed
tonight").
In the 18th Century, another
term for anal sex was "navigate the windward passage".
In
17th century Spain, it was illegal for anyone other than a woman's
husband to see her bare feet. A woman could freely expose her
breasts, but feet were considered sexual and had to be covered in
the presence of men other than her husband.
