This Horrific 17th Century Punishment Was Used To Silence Women
This torture tool was popular in the 17th century Britain to oppress women.
Pure blood libel. We have historical written examples of it being used on men, but all modern "information" insists it was used exclusively to do a heckin misogyny.
Never, ever believe anything that presents men or whites as uniquely evil.
The thing is, even if it were used exclusively to shut women up, it would have been for egregiously bad, anti-social or even criminal behaviour; not just when the odd housewife got a bit uppity.
It's the odd notion that no woman could ever do anything to earn corporal punishment or torture. Something like this wouldn't be 1/10000th of what someone like Ghislaine Maxwell deserves, but there will always be a feminist to argue "muh hooman ryts! for even the most monstrous women.
same thing with Salem witch trials, from what i remember victims were pretty evenly split by sex, and most accusers were women, yet history will lead you to believe it was le ebil patriarchy killing innocent women exclusively

There was a slight slant towards female victims, but an overwhelming slant towards female accusers.
